"libinput_plugins_flags" is bound to be annoying to approximately
everyone who'll ever have to use them so let's rename this while we
still can. Renamed to libinput_plugin_system_flags to leave the
namespace open for a possible future libinput_plugin_flags that works
on individual plugins.

This patch adds a new API for enabling public "plugins" in libinput, in
addition to the exisitng internal ones. The API is currently limited to
specifying which paths should be loaded and whether to load them.
Public plugins are static, they are loaded before the context is initialized
and do not update after that.
If plugins are to be loaded, libinput will then run through those paths,
look up files and pass them to (future) plugins to load the actual
files.
Our debugging tools have an --enable-plugins and
--disable-plugins option that load from the default data paths
(/etc/libinput/plugins and /usr/lib{64}/libinput/plugins) and from
the $builddir/plugins directory.

In commit 9a9466b6a9 ("evdev: discard any frame with EV_SYN SYN_REPORT 1")
all frames with a SYN_REPORT 1 were discarded on the assumption of those
being key repeat frames. Unfortunately the kernel uses the same sequence
to simply mark *any* injected/emulated event, regardless of the cause. Key repeat
events are merely the most numerous ones but as shown in commit
7140f13d82 ("evdev: track KEY_SYSRQ frames and pass them even as repeat frames")
Alt+PrintScreen is also an emulated event.
Issue #1165 details another case: keyboards with n-key rollover can
exceed the kernel-internal event buffer, typically 8 events for devices
without EV_REL/EV_ABS. Those events will be broken up by the kernel into
multiple frames - once nevents == buffer_size the current state is
flushed as SYN_REPORT 1 frame. Then, if any more events are pending
those are flushed as SYN_REPORT 0 frame. In the case of exactly 8
events, the second frame is never present, so we cannot easily detect if
another one is coming.
Issue #1145 only affects us in the touchpad code, the rest of the
backends seem to (so far) be fine. So let's move the discarding of
SYN_REPORT 1 to the touchpad backend and leave the rest of the code
as-is.
This effectively

config.set10 is much more convenient and nicer to read but can provide
false positive if the value is 0 and #ifdef is used instead of #if. So
let's switch everything to use #ifdef instead, that way we cannot get
false positives if the value is unset.

The use of the bug log handler should be replaced with the captured logs
now but meanwhile: don't abort if we're running in --verbose mode and
something prints a debug message before our expected bug error message.

If we push/pop event frames and combine various functions we might end
up sending the same value in the same frame multiple times. This
*should* be fine with libinput but is different to what the kernel does
in that case and harder to debug.
Let's batch any litest_event() until an EV_SYN arrives, then write them
all to libinput in one go.

Instead of having this ifdef'd out split the main and directly
associated functions out into a separate file.
That ifdef used to exist so we can use parts of litest in some other
files (the selftest and the utils test). Those tests care mostly
about the assertion helpers so long-term a split into
assert helpers and "rest of litest" would be better. For now, this will
do.
