Summary:
This change adds support for the switch devices introduces with libinput
1.7 (lid) and 1.9 (tablet mode). So far it's not yet used internally in
KWin, but only exposed through the Device and Events.
As KWin currently only requires libinput 1.5 and we are rather late in
the release cycle the new functionality is ifdef'ed. The requirement
will be raised once master is 5.13. It is already available on
build.kde.org, but e.g. Neon only has 1.6.
The switch events are interesting as they report whether the lid is
closed (might be interesting for e.g. powerdevil) and whether a
convertible is in tablet mode (supported for e.g. Lenovo Yogas with
recent kernel). This can be used by KWin internally to enable/disable
the virtual keyboard. And can be exposed globally to switch to Plasma
Mobile shell in future.
Test Plan:
Only through test case as my Lenovo Yoga uses Neon which has a
too old libinput

Summary:
If KWin interacts with Libinput the RelativePointerManager interface
gets created on the Wayland server. The ForwardInputEventFilter does
forward the relative motion events in addition to the normal motion
events.
In order to properly support the relative motion events as they are
expected by the Wayland protocol the handling of pointer motion events
got slightly adjusted:
* Libinput Pointer event extended by the additional data points
* Libinput Pointer event carries the delta as a QSizeF instead of
QPointF
* PointerInputRedirection adjusted to take a pointer motion event with
more arguments
* Custom QMouseEvent subclass adjusted to carry the additional members
The DebugConsole is adjusted to show the relative motion events in
addition to the global position.
Test Plan:
Verified the manager object is created and verified the
events in DebugConsole. Unfortunately not aware of any test application.

Summary:
Gesture events are swipe or pinch events on a touch pad.
This change implements basic support by:
* wrapping them in LibInput::Event
* processing them in LibInput::Connection and emitting
dedicated signals
* Forwarding them in InputRedirection to PointerInputRedirection
* Support them in the internal input event filter
* Printing debug information in DebugConsole
Further handling is not yet done. In future the following should be
implemented:
* activating e.g. zoom and present windows on pinch/swipe gesture
* forwarding non global gestures to KWayland
Note that forwarding to KWayland is not yet useful as QtWayland does
not yet have support for the unstable protocol. No Qt application could
make use of it yet. So for the moment just global gestures is the best
we can get.
Test Plan: Looked at output of DebugConsole when triggering gestures

Summary:
The Event class now holds a pointer to the Device and not only to the
native libinput_device.

Libinput is an optional dependency for getting low level input events.
As opening the input devices requires root privs this is rather
pointless in the current state. But there is a small added test app which
can be executed with root privs to demonstrate the functionality. To
properly get input events we need a wrapper like it's used in weston.
So far the following is setup:
* opening devices found by udev
* forwarding keyboard events to InputRedirection
* forwarding pointer button events to InputRedirection
* forwarding pointer axis events to InputRedirection
* signals emitted for pointer motion events
Pointer motion events need some further work as they are provided
as delta events. We need to track that and map them properly.
Also missing are touch events due to me not having a touch screen.
It should be fairly simple to setup the touch events, though.
Also hotplugging of devices is not yet implemented.
