The keysyms create a lot of potential namespace conflicts for
C, and are especially problematic for introspection, where we take
constants into the namespace, so GDK_Display conflicts with GdkDisplay.
For C application compatiblity, add gdkkeysyms-compat.h which uses
the old names.
Just one user in GTK+ continues to use gdkkeysyms-compat.h, which is
the gtkimcontextsimple.c, since porting that requires porting more
custom Perl code.
This function makes a better replacement for
gdk_display_get_core_pointer(), wherever it might yet be needed, for
XI2 resorts to XIGetClientPointer(), for the others return the only
core pointer.

Conceivably this GdkEventTranslator may still be asked for events such as
NoExpose or GraphicsExpose for pixmaps. It is not meant to translate such events,
but should at least behave with them.
