Updated patchset adds EKR support and fixes a bunch of issues pointed out in
v1. Patch 04 is intentionally missing, that's the SVG being added which
wouldn't make it past the mailman filters.

The branch is available on
https://github.com/whot/libinput/tree/wip/tablet-pad-modes-v2

One important thing of note: Benjamin and I discussed the kernel side of
things and we'll be aiming for handling the LED toggling in the kernel
through the LED class interface. This means that libinput won't need write
support to sysfs and that libinput doesn't actually have to update the mode,
merely read the changed mode.

this also means that patch 06 and 07 will change significantly though the
public API will remain the same. once the kernel patches are on track to be
in an upstream kernel I'll update the implementation, for now we go with
this one.

Cheers,
  Peter
