These touchpads have a terrible resolution when two fingers are down, causing
scrolling to jump around a lot. That then turns into bug reports that we can't
do much about, the data is simply garbage.

That's the most likely area it will be resting in, if it's sitting anywhere
above that it's likely part of an interaction.
A thumb in the lowest 15mm needs to trigger the pressure threshold before it's
labelled a thumb. A thumb in the lowest 8mm is considered a thumb if it
remains there for 300ms. Regardless of the pressure, since we can't reliably
get pressure here. If a thumb moves out of the area, or starts outside of that
area it is never a thumb.
If edge scrolling is enabled, the 8mm threshold is ineffective since we'll
have normal interaction in that zone for horizontal scrolling.
The thumb tests now require all touchpads to be switched to clickfinger, if we
test for thumb detection on the bottom of the pad we won't get expected
motion events due to the software button area.

Touchpads, notably Elantech, ALPS and bcm5974 don't provide x/y resolution
until recent generations.
Add a new property, LIBINPUT_ATTR_SIZE_HINT, that provides size information to
libinput. Note that this property *does not* override true resolution values,
it is only used when the resolution is missing. It is used merely as an
approximate size hint.
If the resolution for a specific device is known it should be added to the
udev hwdb so it can be set globally. See the bcm5974 entries here:

Most thumbs are detected a few events into the sequence. Work this into parts
of the tapping state machine. Only the most common use-case is handled here -
if the first finger ends up being marked as a thumb, we return to the idle
state and ignore that touch sequence.
At any other state, we handle thumbs like any other finger.

This simply doesn't work for low-dpi mice. Normalizing a 400dpi mouse to a
1000dpi mouse forces a minimum movement of 2.5 units and the resulting pixel
jumps. It is impossible for the caller to detect whether the jump was caused
by a single motion or multiple motion events.
This is technically an API break, but not really.
The accelerated data was already relatively meaningless, even if normalized as
the data did not correspond predictably to any input motion (unless you know
the implementation acceleration function in the caller). So we can drop the
mention from there without expecting any ill effects in the caller.
The unaccelerated data was useless for low-dpi mice and could only be used to
measure the physical distance of the mouse movement - something not used in
any caller we're aware of (if needed, we can add that functionality as a
separate call). Dropping motion normalization for unaccelerated deltas also
restores true dpi capabilities to users of that API, mostly games that want to
make use of high-dpi mice.
This is a simplified patch, the normalization is still in place for most of
libinput, it merely carries the original coordinates in the event itself.
In the case of touchpads, the coordinates are unnormalized into the x-axis
coordinate space as per the documentation.

In some applications, notably Inkscape, where it is common to frequently drag
objects a short distance the default to drag-lock always-on is frustrating for
users.
Make it configurable, with the current default to "on".
New API:
libinput_device_config_tap_set_drag_lock_enabled
libinput_device_config_tap_get_drag_lock_enabled
libinput_device_config_tap_get_default_drag_lock_enabled
Any device capable of tapping is capable of drag lock, there is no explicit
availability check for drag lock. Configuration is independent, drag lock may
be enabled when tapping is disabled.
In the tests, enable/disable drag-lock explicitly where the tests depend
on it.

A common use-case for clickfinger is to use the index finger for moving the
pointer, then triggering the click with a thumb. If the index finger isn't
lifted before the click this counted as two-finger click.
To avoid this, check the distance between touches on the touchpad (on
touchpads reporting resolution values anyway). If the touches are too far
apart, don't count them together (or specifically only count those close
enough together as multi-finger).
The touch area is uneven, it's wider than high. Spreading fingers horizontally
is more common and this also makes it easier to rule out thumbs which tend to
be well below the fingers.

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.

There is quite a wide spread in the delta events generated by trackpoints,
some generate deltas of 1-2 under normal use, while others generate deltas
from 1-20.
It is desirable to normalize trackpoint deltas just like we are normalizing
mouse deltas to 1000 dpi, so as to give different model laptops aprox.
the same trackpoint cursor speed ootb.
Recent versions of udev + hwdb set a POINTINGSTICK_CONST_ACCEL udev property
which can be used to adjust trackpoints which are too slow / too fast
ootb, this commit implements support for that property.

Once we have a doubletap, enter a loop in the state machine where we can tap
multiple times and either get a multi-click or a multi-click drag-and-drop.
The sequence down/up down/up down/up produces a triple-click. The sequence
down/up down/up down/up down produces a triple-click with a button down for
dragging. Yes, that glorious octuple-tap-and-drag, it is now possible. World
domination has been achieved, thank you for playing.
We don't know when we finish tapping now, so add a timeout to send the last
click event once the finger has been released for the last time. This
guarantees that the timestamp of the last button down is later than the
last release. This avoids the bug fixed in synaptics commit
xf86-input-synaptics-1.8.0-21-g37d34f0 (some application don't handle
doubletap correctly without the timestamps).
This works for double-tap immediately, for multi-tap we need to remember the
timestamp of the first press event and use it for the release event so that
there's a forced gap between the release and the second press.

Touches in the exclusion zone are ignored for palm detection and don't move
the cursor. Tapping however triggers before we know whether something is a
palm or not, so we get erroneous button clickst.
If a tap happens in the top half of the touchpad, within the palm exclusion
zones, ignore it for tap purposes. To avoid further complicating the state
machine simply pretend there was a movement > threshold on that finger. This
advances the tap state machine properly that no button events are sent for
this finger.
