    feat: expose keyboard layout Short Name via DBus · a482d73d
    Andrey Butirsky authored
    Due space constraints, Short Name is the only name suitable for keyboard
    layout indication on panels and systray. Usually it's just 2 symbols
    corresponding to standard ISO country code.
    
    libxkbcommon doesn't have this information, so we have to store it in
    compositor for the exposing:
    https://github.com/xkbcommon/libxkbcommon/issues/192
    
    It's exposed by getLayoutDisplayName() DBus method now, as it should initially.
    For Long Name, getCurrentLayoutLongName() method was added.
