It did, thank you very much!

To summarise:

- as per your advice, hw.psm.trackpoint_support=1 is needed so the trackpoint
is properly recognised

- sxhkd doesn't really work anymore, but is apparently not even needed anymore,
as the multimedia (volume up/down/mute) keys work by default as intended

- the multimedia keys work without custom Xmodmap entries (this may have been
the case for a while, though)

- setting the xkb map from xorg.conf.d works as it worked before:

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier      "KeyboardDefaults"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        MatchIsKeyboard "on"
        Driver          "libinput"
        Option          "XkbRules"      "evdev"
        Option          "XkbModel"      "pc104"
        Option          "XkbLayout"     "us,hu"
        Option          "XkbVariant"    ",qwerty"
        Option          "XkbOptions"    "grp:alt_shift_toggle"
EndSection

(I did change rules from xorg to evdev, not sure if it is necessary or not)

- autocutsel works as it worked before (not sure if (still) necessary)

My only remaining problem was that Alt+middle button used to drag the window
(much like Alt+left button does). Middle button+trackpoint now does this "click
scroll" thing (which it may or may not have done before, half a day ago I did
not know it was a thing).

Per https://askubuntu.com/a/959924, 'xinput set-prop "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint"
"libinput Scroll Method Enabled" 0 0 0' turns something I've never heard about
off, so now Alt+middle button is back to dragging windows.

Thank you, Michael and everyone for your help, I seem to be set for the moment.
