Turning raw evdev events into InputEvents.

This is a state machine, and it is the part of input handling that is actually difficult. It is kept platform-independent so every case below is a unit test rather than something you discover by dragging a finger across a panel in a workshop.

Three things it gets right that a naive loop does not:

• Frames. evdev delivers a position as separate REL_X and REL_Y events terminated by SYN_REPORT. Emitting on each axis produces two moves per physical motion, doubling every drag and breaking every gesture threshold. Nothing is emitted until the frame closes.
• Ordering. A click arrives in the same frame as the motion that positioned it. Motion is resolved first, so a button event carries where the pointer actually was, not where it had been.
• Contact identity. Multitouch slots are stateful: a slot keeps reporting for the same finger until its tracking id goes to -1, and only the axes that changed are resent.

Structs

AbsAxis

The calibration of one absolute axis.

RawEvent

One event as read from /dev/input/eventN.

Translator

Accumulates raw events and emits InputEvents a frame at a time.

Constants

MAX_SLOTS

Contacts tracked at once. Ten fingers is more than any panel this targets.
