add a few keys to the keysyms

This is needed for some HID remote controls to work under X.

XF86XK_AudioForward = KEY_FASTFORWARD
XF86XK_AudioRepeat = ...
XF86XK_AudioRandomPlay = KEY_SHUFFLE (the HID Usage Tables call it "Random Play")

(Turns out there's no KEY_REPEAT in the Linux kernel headers...)

I have half-a-gazillion more to be able to support the PS3 Bluetooth remote.

FYI, the definition for repeat was added:
#define KEY_MEDIA_REPEAT 0x1b7

I'll put up an updated patch with more of the keys I would need later on.

Updated patch

This should be good enough to support the new keys I need for Sony Ericsson phones remote, and PS3 BD remotes.
