xkbcomp: fix crashes in the parser when geometry tokens appear
In the XKB format, floats and various keywords can only be used in the xkb_geometry section. xkbcommon removed support xkb_geometry, but still parses it for backward compatibility. As part of ignoring it, the float AST node and various keywords were removed, and instead NULL was returned by their parsing actions. However, the rest of the code does not handle NULLs, and so when they appear crashes usually ensue. To fix this, restore the float AST node and the ignored keywords. None of the evaluating code expects them, so nice error are displayed. Caught with the afl fuzzer. Signed-off-by: Ran Benita <ran234@gmail.com>
