The Asus RoG Gladius exposes two event nodes, one mouse, one keyboard. The
keyboard node has REL_X/Y and REL_HWHEEL on top of the various key bits and
ABS_VOLUME.
The keyboard node does not have BTN_* set, udev tags this device as a
keyboard only, not as a pointer but we still initialize the pointer caps for
it because of the wheel.
When moving this mouse, some deltas (ca "1 in every 20") are sent through the
keyboard node, causing a crash because we never initialized pointer
acceleration.

The quartett of new config functions is:
libinput_device_config_accel_get_profiles
libinput_device_config_accel_get_profile
libinput_device_config_accel_set_profile
libinput_device_config_accel_get_default_profile
The profile defines how the pointer acceleration works, from a very high-level
perspective. Two profiles are on offer, "adaptive", the standard one we have
used so far and "flat" which is a simple multiplier of input deltas and
provides 1:1 mapping of device movement vs pointer movement.
The speed setting is on top of the profile, a speed of 0 (default) is the
equivalent to "no pointer acceleration". This is popular among gamers and
users of switchable-dpi mice.
The flat profile unnormalizes the deltas, i.e. you get what the device does
and any device below 800dpi will feel excruciatingly slow. The speed range
[-1, 1] maps into 0-200% of the speed. At 200%, a delta of 1 is translated
into a 2 pixel movement, anything higher makes it rather pointless.
The flat profile is currently available for all pointer devices but touchpads.

If a caller has a reference to a device group when the context is destroyed,
the memory for the group is never released. Calling
libinput_device_group_unref() will release it and there are no side-effects
since the group has no back-references. It's inconsistent with the rest of
libinput though - all other resources get released on libinput_unref().

The previous approach to pointer acceleration was to initialize the same
motion filter behavior but a different acceleration profile depending on the
hardware (the profile converts a speed to a multiplier for input deltas).
To be more flexible for hardware-specifics, change this into a set of specific
pointer acceleration init functions. This patch has no effective functional
changes, they're still all the same.
The acceleration functions are kept for direct access by the ptraccel-debug
tool.

The previous code used a 5mm threshold before axis events were posted. This
threshold was on top of the 2mm 2fg threshold (and timeout handling) in the
gesture code and effectively prevented events from being sent after a timeout,
or in the 2mm-5mm range.
We still want a directional lock though, so split the two out. The default 5mm
threshold is set to 0 for touchpads since we have our own handling of the
threshold there. The directional lock only applies once scrollin has started
and remains on 5mm.

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:

For touchscreens we always send raw touch events to the compositor, and the
compositor or application toolkits do gesture recognition. This makes sense
because on a touchscreen which window / widget the touches are over is
important context to know to interpret gestures.
On touchpads however we never send raw events since a touchpad is an absolute
device which primary function is to send pointer motion delta-s, so we always
need to do processing (and a lot of it) on the raw events.
Moreover there is nothing underneath the finger which influences how to
interpret gestures, and there is a lot of touchpad and libinput configuration
specific context necessary for gesture recognition. E.g. is this a clickpad,
and if so are softbuttons or clickfinger used? What is the size of the
softbuttons? Is this a true multi-touch touchpad or a semi multi-touch touchpad
which only gives us a bounding box enclosing the fingers? Etc.
So for touchpads it is better to do gesture processing in libinput, this commit
adds an initial implementation of a Gesture event API which only supports swipe
gestures, other gestures will be added later following the same model wrt,
having clear start and stop events and the number of fingers involved being
fixed once a gesture sequence starts.

Motion normalization does not work well for devices below the default 1000dpi
rate. A 400dpi mouse's minimum movement generates a 2.5 normalized motion,
causing it to skip pixels at low speeds even when unaccelerated.
Likewise, we don't want 1000dpi mice to be normalized to a 400dpi mouse, it
feels sluggish even at higher acceleration speeds.
Instead, add a custom acceleration method for lower-dpi mice. At low-speeds,
one device unit results in a one-pixel movement. Depending on the DPI factor,
the acceleration kicks in earlier and goes to higher acceleration so faster
movements with a low-dpi mouse feel approximately the same as the same
movement on a higher-dpi mouse.

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.
