touchpad: reset the motion history on significant negative pressure changes

Resetting the motion history has the side-effect of swallowing movements, we
don't calculate deltas until we have 4 motion events. During a finger release,
we're likely to get a large pressure change between two events, resetting the
motion history prevents the cursor from jumping on release.

The value of 7 found by trial-and-error, tested on the T440 and T450 hardware.
The absolute value is highly variable but recordings show that the pressure
changes only by 1 or 2 units during normal interaction. Higher pressure
changes are during finger position changes but since those should not cause a
jump anyway, we tend to win there too.

Currently only enabled for negative pressure changes, let's see how we go with
that.
