SUMMARY
When typing FAST - dead keys in Latvian (Apostrophe) keyboard layouts leak or
in other words - the diacritics are applied to more than just the letter after
the dead key (apostrophe) press.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Press `'´ (apostrophe)
2. Press `a`
3. Press `c`
4. Repeat this several times as this can be a bit flaky.
Or any other combination with 2 letters which have the diacritic option
following each other (āēīōūžčņļķš)
OBSERVED RESULT
`āč` can be seen
EXPECTED RESULT
`āc` only seen

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
First I want to say that this creates a lot of grammar errors which should not
be there and so the typing becomes very infuriating having to always re-read
everything and fix the issues.
I have ruled out hardware issue with other keyboard and OS.
There are two Latvian kb layouts which use apostrophe - 1. Latvian (apostrophe)
and 2. Latvian (apostrophe, dead quotes). Both have the same issue. There is no
alternative apostrophe layout.
I could not reproduce this on some other language layouts that use dead keys
e.g. German.
Reproduced on both Wayland and X11.
