Hans de Goede 89165da6d6 Change internal timestamps to uint64_t to properly deal with wrapping 
We store timestamps in ms since system boot (CLOCK_MONOTONIC). This will wrap
after circa 50 days.

I've considered making our code wrapping safe, but that won't work. We also
use our internal timestamps to program timer-fds for timeouts. And we store
ms in a single integer but the kernel uses 2 integers, one for seconds and
one for usec/nanosec. So at 32 bits our ms containing integer will wrap
in 50 days, while the kernels seconds storing integer lasts a lot longer.
So when we wrap our ms timestamps, we will be programming the timer-fds
with a seconds value in the past.

So change all our internal timestamps to uint64_t to avoid the wrapping
when programming the timer-fds. Note that we move from 64-bit timestamps to
32-bit timestamps when calling the foo_notify_bar functions from
libinput-private.h. Having 64 bit timestamps has no use past this point,
since the wayland input protocol uses 32 bit timestamps (and clients will
have to deal with wrapping).

libinput

libinput is a library that handles input devices for display servers and other
applications that need to directly deal with input devices.

It provides device detection, device handling, input device event processing
and abstraction so minimize the amount of custom input code the user of
libinput need to provide the common set of functionality that users expect.

Input event processing includes scaling touch coordinates, generating
pointer events from touchpads, pointer acceleration, etc.

libinput originates from weston, the Wayland reference compositor.
