make the "Both Alts" option for switching between groups work again
Seemingly unintentionally bundled together with massive OLPC changes,
commit a8551efb70 from fifteen years ago changed the alts_toggle and
ctrls_toggle to use new key types that relied on virtual modifiers,
in order to address issue #122. But specifying a virtual modifier in
a key assignment does not work, apparenly due to some limitation of
XKM (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/issues/297).
It does not look like that limitation will be fixed. So, let's roll
back the alts_toggle to what it was fifteen years ago when it worked.
This refreshed alts_toggle may cause problems for programs that cannot
cope with an Alt key that produces a different symbol upon key release
than upon key press -- the user will then have to choose a different
option for switching between layouts.
(The ctrls_toggle was restored in commit 4346c44713, six years ago.)
This fixes issue #316.
It also fixes issue #43, reported by Mohammed Adnène Trojette,
originally by Itaï Ben Yaacov in https://bugs.debian.org/463373.
