Dependency on xkbcommon

[Maxim Kartashev]

Hi All,

In the current version of the "pure" Wayland toolkit I introduced a "soft"
dependency on libxkbcommon.so that is dlopened at run time to convert
keystrokes into symbols. However, we have soon discovered that many modern
distros don't have the library installed by default.

As far as I can tell, gdk links with it statically. I wonder how practical
is it for OpenJDK to follow suit (xkbcommon is licensed under derivatives
of the MIT license)? Or else bring in the source code into OpenJDK? Any
other ideas?
