Make Xkb{Get,Set}NamedIndicator spec & manpages match code
The XKB Library spec and the man pages for XkbGetNamedIndicator &
XkbSetNamedIndicator included a device_spec argument neither function
takes, and do not include the XkbGetNamedDeviceIndicator &
XkbSetNamedDeviceIndicator variants that do take it (along with two
other arguments).
This updates them to match the interfaces the code has provided for
decades.
This has been reported multiple times, so this fixes:

Sun Bug 4528016 XkbSetNamedIndicator & XkbGetNamedIndicator man pages are wrong
