Subject: [PATCH] wayland: Cap the max key repeat elapsed time

Cap the elapsed time to something sane in case the compositor sends a bad timestamp, which can result it in it looking like the key has been pressed for a *very* long time, bringing everything to a halt while it tries to enqueue all the repeat events.
