x11/libwacom: work around lld 13 no longer supporting symver tricks

Though x11/libwacom was not yet built during the exp-run for clang/llvm
13 (see bug 258209), due to some other dependencies not being available
yet, I noticed that it failed to build with clang 13, or more
specifically this is due to a behavior change in lld 13:

  ...

Unfortunately the meson build process doesn't really show you why it
failed, but it turns out that running the 'generate-hwdb' command
segfaults:

What happens is that an internal function 'libwacom_match_new' is
supposed to be called, which returns a new 'WacomMatch' object. But
instead, it calls a empty stub which returns NULL, resulting in this
segfault. The empty stub was added as a rather nasty upstream hack to
"Alias the accidentally exposed ABI into different functions", in
b9961dbe91:

> A special "trick" is used here to hide the ABI from new versions:
> Usually when defining multiple versioned symbols, one would define one as the
> default one with @@
>     .symver _foo1,foo@VERSION1
>     .symver _foo2,foo@@version2 <-- default one

> By leaving out the default one, ld doesn't know which one to link to and
> fails with an unresolved symbol. rtld however can still figure it out, so
> anything compiled will continue to work. This way we can make a symbol
> disappear from the library for new builds but have old builds continue to
> work with the new version.

Unfortunately this trick/hack does not work anymore with lld 13, since
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/66d44304921, ("[ELF] Combine
foo@v1 and foo with the same versionId if both are defined "). The idea
behind the hack is to have the linker call the 'real' libwacom_match_new
function whenever it is called from inside the library itself, but any
external callers get the stubbed version which doesn't really do
anything.

I think libwacom should have used a different approach here, but just
renaming those accidentally exposed internal functions to something
different. Then the tricks with .symver are completely unnecessary. Here
I added a patch that is as simple as possible, which adds #defines for
two affected functions in libwacomint.h, renaming then from
'libwacom_xxx' to 'libwacom_internal_xxx'. This does not affect the
corresponding exposed functions in the libwacom.so, and makes the
'generate-hwdb' command work OK again. I also ran the complete libwacom
test suite, including the deprecated functions test, and it works fine.
