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.

This adds the configuration option to define a rectangle that serves as
an input area on external tablets such as an Intuos.
The intention behind this is to make this input area behave as if it was
the only physical input area on this tablet with libinput emulating
proximity events as required for where the tools moves in and out
of this area.
This could also be achieved with the existing calibration setting but
area configuration is not calibration and we don't want to expose other
side-effects of the matrix (e.g. scaling and rotation) for these
devices.

New commandline switch --with-hidraw. This will open all hidraw devices
associated with this device and add any reports to the output in the
form:
events:
- hid:
time: [0, 0]
hidraw1: [0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x05, 0x06]
hidraw2: [0x07, 0x08, 0x09, 0x0a, 0x0b]
- evdev:
...
i.e. there's a nesting of `hid` with a list of reports, each with the hidraw
node as dictionary entry.
Because hidraw events do not have timestamps and always occur before the evdev
events, they are in a separate frame (as shown above). We could try to figure
out how to match them with the upcoming evdev frame but it's not worth it for
now.
The timestamp itself is a special key in the hidraw with the timestamp from
clock_gettime.
