Fixed bug 3545 - SDL_EVDEV_do_text_input() may be too eager to find error cases 

Rob

I've ran into an issue where I successfully receive SDL_KEY[UP,DOWN] events but not SDL_TEXTINPUT or SDL_TEXTEDITING.  In my case the code in SDL_EVDEV_do_text_input() is returning early (on error) prior to calling SDL_SendKeyboardText().  I'm running on the RaspberryPi 3, without X11.

In SDL_EVDEV_do_text_input() there is a condition to check keysyms with a type value below 0xf0, then subtract 0xf0 from type.  Without understanding the purpose of this code, I disabled it, recompiled, and I'm getting correct SDL_TEXTINPUT events.  I'm going to guess that my hack/fix is going to be problematic in some other environment, but after some initial testing it looks like everything is running fine in my setup.
