Companion patch to https://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3332 (win32), but for X11.

The patch makes StartTextInput/StopTextInput call Xutf8ResetIC ( https://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.5/doc/man/man3/XmbResetIC.3.html ) on the XIC of all SDL windows.

This fixes my use case in Quakespasm (Ubuntu 16.04, system keyboard layout set to German. Type the '^' dead key, which opens Quakespasm's developer console and calls SDL_StartTextInput, then press 'e'. I expect the dead key to be ignored.)

Also, here is a patch for sdl2's "checkkeys" for testing this: https://bugzilla-attachments.libsdl.org/attachment.cgi?id=2451
