Introduced in commit 8e7f99c27a we only allowed horizontal edge scrolling
on devices larger than 50mm to leave enough reactive space on the touchpad.
Looking at a ruler, a 50mm high touchpad is still large enough to leave the
bottom 7mm as an horizontal edge scroll area. Reduce the minimum size to 40mm
instead, that's closer to where it starts to get a bit iffy.

Prefix device log messages with the device's sysname so it's more obvious
where the messages are coming from. This makes it much easier to grep for a
specific device's messages but also adds some identifier to messages that
were previously without any identifier (e.g. all the state machine debugging)
All info and error messages also automatically prefix the device name, so
those messages are standardised too, e.g
an info message now:
event4 - SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: is tagged by udev as: Touchpad
a debug message now:
event4 - using pressure-based touch detection
And since this required changing a lot of the strings in messages anyway,
polish a few minor things too.

We simply don't have enough space on those touchpads to have an area carved
out for horizontal scrolling. Given that horizontal scrolling is rarely needed
anyway users of these touchpads will just have to cling to scroll bars or use
two-finger scrolling.
Exception are small clickpads because they already have an area blocked off
for software buttons and those small clickpads generally come from a time when
clickfinger wasn't much of a thing yet.

No need to handle events properly in the edge scroll state machine when it's

For short and quick scroll gestures, those that should only trigger a few
lines of scroll the pointer acceleration is wildly unpredictable. Since we
average the motion of both fingers it's hard enough to intuitively predict
what the motion will be like. On top of that is the small threshold before we
start scrolling, so some of the initial motion gets swallowed before we
accelerate, making the next motion even more unpredictable.
The end result is that multiple seemingly identical finger motions cause
wildly different scroll motion.
Drop pointer acceleration for two-finger and edge scrolling. This makes short
scroll motions much more predictable and doesn't seem to have much effect on
long scroll motions. Plus, in natural scroll mode it really feels like the
content is stuck to your fingers now. Go wash your hands.

The current code labels a touch as palm if it started within the typing
timeouts. To move the pointer even after the timeout expires, a user has to
lift the finger which is quite annoying and different to the old synaptics
driver behaviour (which had a simple on/off toggle on whether to let events
through or not).
Be smarter about this: if a touch starts _after_ the last key press event,
release it for pointer motion once the timeout expires. Touches started before
the last key press remain labelled as palms. This makes it possible to rest
the palm on the touchpad while typing without getting interference but also
provides a more responsive UI when moving from typing to using the touchpad
normally.

The previous setting of 10 wasn't 10 mm, it was used against the deltas
normalized to a 1000DPI mouse, i.e. closer to 4mm. It was also also per-event,
so a slow movement or a high-frequency touchpad can struggle to meet the
threshold.
Change the trigger to be ~5 mm from the initial touch down, accumulated until
we either meet the threshold or the timeout expires. The first scroll event
includes the delta since the touch down rather than the most recent delta.
This removes the delay otherwise seen in scrolling and makes the scroll motion
match the finger motion. This accumulated delta only applies when exceeding
the motion threshold, when the timeout triggers the switch to scrolling the
first delta posted is the current delta.

Handle everything which is not handled by the tap, (soft)button or edge-scroll
code/statemachines in a unified way. Everything is treated as a X-finger
gesture now, and the action to take on finger movement is decided by
the gesture.finger_count setting. Pointer control now simply is seen as a
1 finger gesture, and 2fg scrolling as a 2fg gesture.
This removed the need for special-casing things like switching back to
pointer mode when lifting a finger in 2fg scrolling mode, and also lays the
groundwork for adding 3+ fg gesture support.
Note that 1 test-case needs to be updated to wait for the finger mode
switching when switching mode while a gesture has already been started.
This is actually an improvement as this stops sending spurious pointer
motion events at the end of 2fg scrolling when not lifting both fingers at
exactly the same time.

Some touchpads provide touch information while the finger hovers over the
touchpad, i.e. before BTN_TOUCH. Add a touch state for those touchpads so we
can ignore the touches until they actually start.
The approach is now: instead of BEGIN we mark a new touch as HOVERING.
Use the BTN_TOOL_FINGER, BTN_TOOL_DOUBLETAP information during
tp_process_state() to mark any touches that are hovering as down or ended.
i.e. provided BTN_TOUCH is down: if BTN_TOOL_FINGER is down, one hovering
touch gets marked as down, if DOUBLETAP is down, two touches are marked as
down, etc.
When ending touches, switch them back into HOVERING if the BTN_TOOL_FINGER
is still set, otherwise end them properly.

This is merged on top of the wheel normalization patches. Those introduced an
axis source and an extra "discrete" value to the various internal and external
APIs. This branch changed from a single value to passing dx/dy into all scroll
events.
The conflicts are to change everything to take x, y, x_discrete, y_discrete as
values (and the source axis mask of course).
Conflicts:
src/evdev-mt-touchpad-edge-scroll.c
src/evdev.c
src/libinput-private.h
src/libinput.c
The recent normalization of wheel events means we get the angle in degrees but
we don't know how this corresponds to clicks. The M325 has a 20 degree click
angle, most other mice have 15 degrees. So an angle of 60 can be 3 or 4 click
events.
Most clients care more about the click count than the angle on a mouse wheel.
Provide that value when needed.
Adding a discrete value to the axis event leaves the possibility of defining
discrete units for finger/continuous scroll sources in the future. Right now,
these will always reuturn 0.

Sending separate axis events instead of one unified events is limiting,
especially when simultaneously scrolling in both directions and the caller
tries to implement kinetic scrolling.
Take a page from the tablet-support branch and instead implement the axis
event as a generic event that can contain multiple axes simultaneously.
Right now we only have two (scroll) axes and we could easily just check both
for non-zero values. If we want to allow further axes in the future, we need
a check whether an axis is set in an event, that's what
libinput_event_pointer_has_axis to scroll events() is for.
We also need the mask to notify of a scroll stop event, which could otherwise
be confused as a vertical-only or horizontal-only event.

For a caller to implement/provide kinetic scrolling ("inertial scrolling",
"fling scrolling"), it needs to know how the scrolling motion was implemented,
and what to expect in the future. Add this information to the pointer axis
event.
The three scroll sources we have are:
* wheels: scrolling is in discreet steps, you don't know when it ends, the
wheel will just stop sending events
* fingers: scrolling is continuous coordinate space, we know when it stops and
we can tell the caller
* continuous: scrolling is in continuous coordinate space but we may or may not
know when it stops. if scroll lock is used, the device may never technically
get out of scroll mode even if it doesn't send events at any given moment
Use case: trackpoint/trackball scroll emulation on button press
The stop event is now codified in the API documentation, so callers can use
that for kinetic scrolling. libinput does not implement kinetic scrolling
itself.
Not covered by this patch:
* The wheel event is currently defined as "typical mouse wheel step", this is
different to Qt where the step value is 1/8 of a degree. Some better
definition here may help.
* It is unclear how an absolute device would map into relative motion if the
device itself is not controlling absolute motion.
* For diagonal scrolling, the vertical/horizontal terminator events would come
in separately. The caller would have to deal with that somehow.

We use 2 mechanisms to unregister the trackpoint event listener depending on
device removal order.
1) We have a device_removed callback, if the trackpoint gets removed before
the touchpad, this gets called, sees the device being removed is the trackpoint
and unregisters the listener
2) If the touchpad gets removed first, then in tp_destroy we unregister the
listener
2) May be delayed beyond the destruction of the trackpoint itself if the
libinput user has a reference to the libinput_device for the touchpad.
When this happens the trackpoint still has an eventlistener at destroy time
and an assert triggers.
To fix this we must do 2) at the same time as we do 1), so at remove time.
While working on this I noticed that the touchpad code was also cancelling
timers at destroy time rather then remove time, which means that they may
expire between remove and destroy time, and cause events to be emitted from
a removed device, so this commit moves the cancelling of the timers to the
remove callback as well.
