    conio/wayland: fix key repeat sending numpad digits for arrows

    bug ticket 242: holding arrows under Wayland produced ASCII digits
    (Left=4, Right=6, Up=8, Down=2, etc.) once key-repeat began.

    send_scancode() stored the remapped BIOS scancode in repeat_key,
    but handle_key_repeat() feeds repeat_key back into send_scancode()
    as if it were an evdev code. BIOS scancode 75 (Left) collides with
    evdev KEY_KP4, so the xkb path returned '4' on repeat — and the
    same coincidence covers all the other reported keys.

    Store the original evdev_key in repeat_key consistently, and match
    release events against evdev_key.
