commit 1de6ca599f6f410308c7fe2ddd700197f66662fd

    nxagent: add keyboard=clone configuration option
    
    Specifying -keyboard clone (or keyboard=clone in options) will clone
    XKB keyboard from the remote x server. This way many keyboard problems
    will hopefully never return...
    
    Should be the default but is not (yet) for compatibility reasons.
    
    Fixes ArcticaProject/nx-libs#373
    
    (except the "do autoconf if no keyboard is provided" feature.)
