The main purpose of the edge zone is to detect palms in the area where we
cannot assume a full finger size and thus cannot use any other palm detection
mechanism. 8mm should be large enough that a finger should be detected based
on other properties (size, pressure, ...).

A touchpad that was disabled by toggling the sendevents option would come back

On some devices with a tablet mode switch, the touchpad is inacessible when
in tablet mode and we don't really need this except to avoid possible ghost
touches (none have been mentioned so far). On other devices like the Lenovo
Yoga, the touchpad points to the back of the device and it's hard to use the
device without accidentally using the touchpad. For those, disabling the
touchpad is the best solution.

Calculate the speed of the touch and compare it against a fixed speed limit.
If a touch exceeds the speed when a second touch is set down, that second
touch is marked as a thumb and ignored (unless it's right next to the other
finger, then it's likely a 2fg scroll).
The speed calculation is simple but has to lag behind by one sample - we reset
the motion history whenever a new finger is set down (to avoid pointer jumps)
so we need to know if the finger was moving fast *before* this happens. Plus,
with the pointer jumps we're more likely to get false positives if we
calculate the speed on actual finger down.
This is the simplest version for now, the speed varies greatly between
movements and should probably be averaged across the last 3-or-so samples.

Apple touchpads don't use ABS_MT_PRESSURE but they are multitouch touchpads,
so the current pressure-based handling code doesn't apply because it expects
slot-based pressure for mt touchpads.
Apple does however send useful data for ABS_MT_WIDTH_MAJOR/MINOR, so let's use
that instead. The data provided in those is more-or-less random, so we need a
hwdb entry to track the acceptable thresholds.

If the touchpad is suspended and resumed (e.g. lid switch), the initial slot
state may be out of sync. If a touch happened while the touchpad was suspended
and the next touch down is on exactly the same x and/or y coordinate, our
touch point would still have the coordinates of the most recently seen touch
(i.e. before touchpad suspend). This could cause a pointer jump or test case
failures.
The real-world impact of this is minimal, putting the finger down in exactly
the same spot is virtually impossible. It could cause a test case failure in the
lid_disable_touchpad() test though, the second touch sequence was on the same
y coordinate and the touch location for that whole sequence was x/0.

If a touch goes past the fixed pressure threshold it is labelled as a palm and
stays a palm. Default value is one that works well here on a T440 and is
virtually impossible to trigger by a normal finger or thumb. A udev property
is exposed so we can handle this in the udev hwdb and the new tool introduce a
few commits ago can help finding the palm detection threshold.
Unlike the other palm detection features, once a palm goes past the threshold
it remains a palm until the touch is released. This means palm overrides any
other palm detection features. For code simplicity, we don't combine the
states but merely check for pressure before and after the other palm detection
functions. If the pressure triggers, it will trigger before anything else. And
if something else is already active (e.g. edge where the pressure doesn't work
well) it will trigger as soon as the palm is released.
The palm threshold should thus be chosen with some room to spare between the
highest finger pressure.

Most modern touchpads are around 100mm wide, so this provides a ca 8mm edge
zone on each side. The extra 3mm should provide for more reliable palm
detection, a few touches happen to be just on the edge of the 5mm mark.

We have heuristics for detecting whether a keyboard is internal or external,
but in some cases (e.g. Surface 3) these heuristics fail. Add a udev property
that we can apply to these cases so we have something that's reliable.
This will likely eventually become ID_INPUT_KEYBOARD_INTEGRATION as shipped by
systemd, similar to the touchpad property.

This was originally left outside of the button areas in case users tap in
those zones, but we're getting false tap events in that zone.
On a 100mm touchpad, the edge zone is merely 5mm, it's acceptable to ignore
taps in that area even in the software button. We can revisit this if we see
tap detection failures in the future.

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.
