The removal of the hysteresis even on precise touchpads has led to
difficulties controlling the cursor in a few instances. Since 27078b2667
we only have the hysteresis on Apple touchpads and the Lenovo *40 series and
later. Even on those do we see some positioning difficulties (bug 94379).
So restore the hysteresis by default again for all touchpads. In the future a
knob could be exposed for precision vs reactivity or something, but for now
the drawback of imprecise positioning does not outweigh the benefits we get
on those few devices.

A large part of the bugs seen right now are related to touchpads jittering too
much. Fixing them one by one is entertaining, but time consuming. Right now
the number of touchpads that require a hysteresis seem to outnumber those that
don't, so switch the approach around: leave the hysteresis in place but
disable it for those touchpads that don't need it.

Otherwise the abs->value could lie outside the [min, max] range of the axis.
This isn't much of an issue for actual axes but in the case of ABS_MT_SLOT
(value 47) it causes errors when libevdev sanitises the event into the allowed
slot range.

The hwdb doesn't allow unsetting a property so once we start nesting model
flags it'll become important to be able to be able to unset one as well (by
assigning it to 0).
So rather than checking for existence, check whether the property is actually
set to something resembling a boolean.

error margin) print a warning to the log.

This was introduced for bug 94379 - an X1 Carbon 3rd. Other touchpads have
different pressure change ranges, causing this condition to trigger
randomly and resulting in a jerky pointer motion.
For now, reduce the check to the *50 and *60 series touchpads until we have
data for more touchpads that we can add one-by-one.

Introduced in 6ad303b as part of an code flow optimization, causing any 3+

However, the event is filtered in the higher levels with a bug message printed

Don't post swipe gestures for devices where gestures are disabled.

The micro-versions of 90 and above are used for snapshots and release
