This is a leftover from when some of the filter code was shared between
pointer acceleration methods (pre v1.11 or so). Now these functions are
duplicated across files, so both the names and what they do isn't
necessarily reflective anymore.
Let's drop one layer of indirection to make the code a bit easier to
understand.
No functional changes.

No functional changes, this is just for improving readability and a
leftover when some of these functions were used by multiple filters.
This filter normalizes the data first, then applies the acceleration to
the normalized values. So let's keep the data in normalized_coords
structs and only drop to device_float_coords when we have to to use the
tracker API.

See d6e5313497 for confirmation that the
threshold is intended to be in mm/s, the comment here is simply a leftover from
earlier times when the acceleration method was using device-units only.

libinput applies averaging to the velocity of most pointer devices. Averaging
the velocity makes the motion look smooth and may be of benefit to bad input
devices. For good devices, however, it comes at the unfortunate price of
decreased accuaracy.
This change turns velocity averaging off by default (sets ntrackers to 2 instead
of 16) and allows for it to be turned back on via a quirk, for bad devices which
require it.
Yeah, it's duplication. But this way it's also separation and we can't
accidentally use the wrong struct.
