This corresponds to XListInputDevice(3)'s "type" field (after being converted to an Atom). Input drivers use the XI_KEYBOARD and similar defines, even Wacom which falls out of the common defines uses constant strings here. The use-case for having this non-const is small.
Input ABI break technically, since we never freed this information anyway it is not a noticable change.
