@param name The name of a keysym. See remarks in xkb_keysym_get_name();
this function will accept any name returned by that function.
@param flags A set of flags controlling how the search is done. If
invalid flags are passed, this will fail with XKB_KEY_NoSymbol.
If you use the XKB_KEYSYM_CASE_INSENSITIVE flag and two keysym names
differ only by case, then the lower-case keysym is returned. For
instance, for KEY_a and KEY_A, this function would return KEY_a for the
case-insensitive search. If this functionality is needed, it is
recommended to first call this function without this flag; and if that
fails, only then to try with this flag, while possibly warning the user
he had misspelled the name, and might get wrong results.
@returns The keysym. If the name is invalid, returns XKB_KEY_NoSymbol.
Get a keysym from its name.
