Both functions accept a series of event types/codes tuples, terminated by -1.
For the even type INPUT_PROP_MAX (an invalid type otherwise) the code is used
as a property to enable.
The _abs function als takes an array of absinfo, with absinfo.value
determining the axis to change. If none are given, abs axes are initialized
with default settings.
Both functions abort on failure, so the caller does not need to check the
return value.
Example code for creating a rel device:
struct libevdev_uinput *uinput;
struct input_id id = { ... };
uinput = litest_create_uinput_device("foo", &id,
EV_REL, REL_X,
EV_REL, REL_Y,
EV_KEY, BTN_LEFT,
INPUT_PROP_MAX, INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD,
-1);
libevdev_uinput_write_event(uinput, EV_REL, REL_X, -1);
libevdev_uinput_write_event(uinput, EV_SYN, SYN_REPORT, 0);
...
libevdev_uinput_destroy(uinput);

With this patch, a user can keep a reference to a libinput_seat
instance, which will cause the seat to never be unlinked from the
libinput context nor destroyed.
Previously, a when the last device of a seat was removed, the seat was
unlinked and if a new device was discovered with a previously empty seat
a new seat instance would always be created, meaning two potential seat
instances with identical physical and logical seat name pairs.

Creates an empty context that is not hooked up to a device. Callers can then
add and remove devices to this context using libinput_path_add_device() and
libinput_path_remove_device().

This allows multiple devices to share a single libinput context. The new
function returns the newly added device immediately. Unlike the udev seat
where devices may or may not be added - over the lifetime of the seat - a
path-based backend knows immediately if device exists or doesn't exist.
Returning the device is required by callers that have the event processing
separate from adding devices - by the time we have the DEVICE_ADDED event in
the queue we may have other events to process first. And the DEVICE_ADDED
event won't easily link to the path we gave it anyway, so it's hard to figure
out which DEVICE_ADDED event corresponds to the new device.

evdev_device_remove() already calls close(device->fd). Move the
close_restricted call there to avoid one privileged call in the backend and
one in the device. And move the open_restricted() into the evdev device too to
reduce the duplicated code in the two backends.
Update to one of the tests: since we'd now fail getting the device node from
the invalid /tmp path, the open_func_count is 0.

Now that the target of an event isn't exposed to the caller anymore, the
namespacing can be associated with a more intuitive one.

After dropping seat evens, all events are now are associated with a device, so
provide a generic accessor function and drop the custom ones.

seats are more a compositor concept than a concept of the input library. All
devices in a libinput context are associated with the seat given on creation
of the seat (maps to ID_SEAT in udev for the udev backend).
A logical seat may be assigned to a device (e.g. WL_SEAT) but this does not
necessarily map to the creation of the seat in the compositor.
Drop the seat events but keep seat objects around so that the caller can still
identify which seat a device belongs to.
If the libinput_seat_unref() in the udev backend destroys the seat, the device
list of that seat is invalid and we'd be accessing already freed bytes. To
avoid this, ref the seat before the device removal loop, then unref it once
we're done - that unref then may trigger the actual removal of the seat.
