Device names are more or less free form text, which makes them less than ideal for use as configuration entry keys. There are devices that can have multiple functions i.e. there can be several input device nodes that can't be told apart based on vendor-product information. Make it possible to define device to be configured also by using udev/modalias style bus, vendor and product id key. Make it possible to override heuristics conditionally based on probed device type i.e. configuration can be done in terms of device identification and the type mce would have arrived to by default. Add a placeholder configuration file that acts also as documentation for the feature. Signed-off-by: Simo Piiroinen <simo.piiroinen@jolla.com>

I can get mouse state listening to work, but MCE_HARDWARE_MOUSE_STATE_GET method call returns an error for some reason. |
New method calls need to be made allowed-for-user and I forgot to do that. Will fix. |

MCE needs to track appearing and disappearing input devices and gauge type of each input device currently available. Some of this state information is also exposed over D-Bus, e.g. availability of hardware keyboard is used by UI side to decide whether virtual keyboard should be shown or not. Differentiate between touch and mouse input devices within MCE, keep track of mouse device availability, and expose availability state on D-Bus as an enabler for UI showing or hiding mouse cursor.

…5731 Based on input device capabilities YubiKey USB dongles look like full blown keyboards. This leads to virtual keyboard getting disabled when such dongle is attached. Add mce input device type configuration file that labels YubiKey devices as "user activity tracking only" type - using the dongle postpones display blanking etc, but does not affect virtual keyboard visibility.
