[PATCH libinput 0/3] Support of true hovering

[Benjamin Tissoires]

Hi,

The Chromebook Pixel 2015 presents a true per finger hovering transmitted
by the ABS_MT_DISTANCE event. This is to my knowledge the first touchpad
presenting such information and libinput fails to handle it properly.

This patch series aims at supporting a per-finger hovering and making the
touchpad functional. On this laptop, only the touchpad reports hovering,
the touchscreen doesn't.

This patch series will need at least 2 follow up patches I guess:
1. support hovering for touchscreens too
2. fetch the initial state of the evdev device when opening it. Without this,
   the first hovering finger of the session is seen as a touch (annoying but
   it disapears as soon as it touches once the sensor).

I am sending this series now because the 2 previous points are not mandatory
for current users.

Cheers,
Benjamin
