a202ed6115 Use a newtype usec_t for timestamps for better type-safety
This avoids mixing up milliseconds and usec, both by failing if
we're providing just a number somewhere we expect usecs and also
by making the API blindingly obvious that we're in usecs now.

a37d6dcc9c touchpad: if we have a right button, let's assume it's not a clickpad
This assumption dates back roughly a decade when INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD was
introduced into the kernel. To my knowledge, devices right now erroneously
advertise INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD when they are not a clickpad (but then they
have BTN_RIGHT) or they lack INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD (and only have BTN_LEFT).

So let's change our assumption here - if a clickpad has a right button log the
kernel bug and continue with the assumption the device is a touchpad with
physical buttons.

To disable that warning, fix the kernel or add an AttrInputPropDisable quirk
for the device.

467266bbb4 touchpad: a touchpad with only one button is a clickpad
There is only one touchpad with a physical left button but no right button and
that is the old Apple touchpad, discontinued in 2008. Not a huge number of
those left, I assume.

So let's change our assumptions because these days the vast majority of
touchpads are clickpads - any touchpad that only has a left button is treated
as clickpad, even where the kernel doesn't set the INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD.

We do need to check for BTN_LEFT as well though, because Wacom touchpads (i.e.
the touch part of non-integrated Wacom tablets) don't have a left button
either.

42d6fed868 touchpad: always push a touch's current point to the motion history
The way touchpads (generally) work is that they get the position of each
finger on each scanout. The kernel filters touches that haven't moved to
reduce bandwidth so any touch that is logically down that we don't see an
update for is in the same position as during the last scanout.

Previously, touches that didn't sent events were effectively ignored, causing
our jump detection to fail:
- time t0: touch moves to position x/y, motion history time is set to t0
- time t1..t5: touch remains at position for several frames, no updates to the
  motion history
- time t6: touch jumps to position x+a/y+b
  - tp_detect_jumps() sees the last update time is t0 which is too long ago
    and exits without detecting a jump

This is fixed by pushing to the motion history any time we have *any* update -
if the touchpad notices a state change on any touch update all touches with
their current position, whether it changed or not.

This obsoletes the `time` field in the tp_touch struct, most of this patch is
passing down the current time to the few users of t->time.

df1f6ba40f touchpad: avoid motion events when moving one finger into AREA
If a 2fg scroll motion starts with both fingers in the bottom button area and
one finger moves into the main area before the other, we used to send motion
events for that finger. Once the second finger moved into the main area the
scroll was detected correctly but by then the cursor may have moved out of the
intended focus area.

We have two transitions where we may start sending motion events: when we move
out of the bottom area and when the finger moves by more than 5mm within the
button area. In both cases, check for any touches that are in the
bottom area and started at the 'same' time as our moving touch. Mark those as
'moved' to release them for gestures so we get the right finger count and
axis/gesture events instead of just motion events.

13bda5adcb touchpad: if a finger in the button area moves by more than 5mm, release it
The software button area is currently a partially-dead area. If the finger
moves into or out of the area pointer motion works. Finger motion within the
area however does not generate motion.

The main motivation for this was to avoid accidental pointer motion when a
button is pressed. This is required for stationary fingers but once you move a
significant distance, those bets are off.

So if the finger moves by more than 5mm from where it was put down, release it
and let it move the pointer.

The full impact is largely limited to horizontal movements within the button
area because:
- leaving the finger at the bottom area for 300ms without movement triggers
  the thumb identification, so it won't move anyway.
- moving the finger north is likely to go off the button area before we
  trigger this threshold.

d698de6e68 touchpad: send a left button event when we move out of topbuttons and click
We used to completely ignore a finger that was within the top software button
area and then moved to the main area and remained there for a timeout. This
avoids erroneous pointer movements when the user moves the finger while using
the trackpoint.

But we also ignored physical clicks, something we should not be doing. This
patch fixes that behavior: we still ignore the finger for movement, but a
physical click now triggers a left click once we've been in the area for the
timeout.

This new behavior doesn't apply within the timeout, i.e. if a finger is in the
right top button area, moves out and immediately clicks, we still trigger a
right click. This avoids erroneous switches to left-clicks when the finger is
at the edge of the button area and moves out during the press.

c0dbd6eb38 touchpad: ignore hovering touches for the software button state
If a touch started hovering in the main area, the button state would start
with AREA and never move to the real button state, despite the finger
triggering the pressure thresholds correctly in one of the areas.

This could even happen across touch sequences if a touch went below pressure
in the software button area, it changed to hovering and the button state
changed to NONE. On the next event, the touch is still hovering and the
current position of the touch is taken for the button state machine.

6181adbdcd evdev: standardize log messsages
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.
