compose: remove the keysym_from_name cache

The hit rate is high, but either the cache is slow or the function is
not fast enough -- the cache no longer holds its weight, leading only to
very modest improvements. If it's the former, it can definitely be
improved, the code is very dumb (though it worked just as well as any
other I tried back then). But instead, let's just kill it.
