xkb: Fix buffer overflow in _XkbSetCompatMap()
The _XkbSetCompatMap() function attempts to resize the `sym_interpret`
buffer.
However, It didn't update its size properly. It updated `num_si` only,
without updating `size_si`.
This may lead to local privilege escalation if the server is run as root
or remote code execution (e.g. x11 over ssh).
