If it's generic enough then the hwdb is definitely a good place for
things like that. If the concept however only has value for
iio-sensor-proxy specifically then it should probably live in that
package. Of course the lines are blurry there, so compare with the
input case: hwdb carries dpi quirk data for all kinds of mice, and if
this data is like that, then it fits in.
