a6f0e4ae60 timer: flush the timer funcs if our events come in late
Avoid processing an event with a time later than the earliest timer expiry. If
libinput_dispatch() isn't called frequently enough, we may have e.g. a tap
timeout happening but read a subsequent input event first. In that case we can
erroneously trigger or miss out on taps, see wrong palm detection, etc.

So we have something useful to print when we trigger an error in the timer
code.

e43f9da9ec evdev: allow button scrolling on the L/R button with middle emulation active
This worked before, but triggered a negative timer bug. When one of the
physical L/R buttons is pressed with middle button emulation enabled, the
flow is:
1) phys left button down
2) middle button state machine discards events, sets timer
3) timer expires or button is released
4) middle button state machine sends button press with time from 1)
5) emulation code sees button press, sets timer for scroll emulation
6) timer logs bug because (original-button-time + timeout) is less than now()

That log_bug_libinput() warning fails the tests but works otherwise.

Allow this situation explicitly, on some devices we only have left and right
buttons and no scroll wheel, so having middle button emulation *and*
button-scroll working is useful.

aa5f55149b Change to micro seconds for measuring time internally
In order to provide higher precision event time stamps, change the
internal time measuring from milliseconds to microseconds.
Microseconds are chosen because it is the most fine grained time stamp
we can get from evdev.

The API is extended with high precision getters whenever the given
information is available.

bc9f16b40e COPYING: Update boilerplate from MIT X11 to MIT Expat license
To quote Bryce Harrington from [1]:
"MIT has released software under several slightly different licenses,
including the old 'X11 License' or 'MIT License'.  Some code under this
license was in fact included in X.org's Xserver in the past.  However,
X.org now prefers the MIT Expat License as the standard (which,
confusingly, is also referred to as the 'MIT License').  See
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/tree/COPYING

When Wayland started, it was Kristian Høgsberg's intent to license it
compatibly with X.org.  "I wanted Wayland to be usable (license-wise)
whereever X was usable."  But, the text of the older X11 License was
taken for Wayland, rather than X11's current standard.  This patch
corrects this by swapping in the intended text."

libinput is a fork of weston and thus inherited the original license intent
and the license boilerplate itself.

f638677051 Add a timer subsystem
Currently we are using DIY timers in the touchpad softbutton and tap handling
code, and at least the softbutton code gets its wrong. It uses one timer-fd
per touchpad to set a timeout per touch, which means that if a timeout is
set for 100ms from now for touch 1, and then 50 ms later touch 2 sets a timeout
for 200 ms from now, then the timeout for touch 1 will come 150 ms too late.

This commits adds a proper timer subsystem so that we've one place to deal
with timer handling, and so that we can only get it wrong (well hopefully
we get it right) in one place.
