Passing a negative value in `needed` to the `XkbResizeKeyActions()`
function can create a `newActs` array of an unespected size.
Check the value and return if it is invalid.
This error has been found by a static analysis tool. This is the report:
Error: OVERRUN (CWE-119):

The X server uses this directory to store the compiled version of the
current keymap and/or any scratch keymaps used by clients. The X server
or some other tool might destroy or replace the files in this directory,
so it is not a safe place to store compiled keymaps for long periods of
time. The default keymap for any server is usually stored in:
X<num>-default.xkm
where <num> is the display number of the server in question, which makes
it possible for several servers *on the same host* to share the same
directory.
Unless the X server is modified, sharing this directory between servers on
different hosts could cause problems.
