📄 Description

This fixes parsing the keyboard layout update event in sway (using sway v1.9).

When using these commands to switch between layouts I didn't get any updates before.

swaymsg input "type:keyboard" xkb_layout de
swaymsg input "type:keyboard" xkb_layout en

Not sure why I get XkbKeymap instead of XkbLayout for this event. Will still try to find out more about this. But maybe a sway expert is available for review.
