This lets libevdev provide a relatively generic interface for the
creation of uinput devices so we don't need to duplicate this across
multiple projects.
Most of this is lifted from the current test implementation, with a
couple of minor changes.
EV_REP needs special handling:
Kernel allows to set the EV_REP bit, it doesn't set REP_* bits (which we
wrap anyway) but it will also set the default values (500, 33).
Device node is guessed based on the sysfs path:
The sysfs path contains a eventN file, that corresponds to our
/dev/input/eventN number. Use it so clients can quickly get the device
node, without a libudev dependency.

libevdev has no external dependencies and both check and libudev are
only required for running the unit-tests. Make them optional.

Make check will simply overwrite results of a previous test. Hook up gcov so that the test has to be
explicitly passed to avoid confusion here.

This avoids messing around with libtool for debugging. I may revert this
once the library is actually slightly stable, but for now this makes things
easier.

Two main goals of this library:
- 'transparently' handle SYN_DROPPED events
- avoid errors in ioctl handling by providing a simpler interface.
Keeps a cached copy of the device for quick querying.
