PointerDevice.GetPointerDevice(...) fails for stylus and touch

[MartinRichards23]

Describe the bug

Windows.Devices.Input.PointerDevice.GetPointerDevice(e.Pointer.PointerId); works when using mouse input, but fails on my Surface tablet using touch and stylus with message: "The parameter is incorrect. Failed to get pointer information."

This works in UWP, it is blocking for our upgrade to WASDK.

Steps to reproduce the bug

This simple event handler will reproduce the issue:

        private void Grid_PointerPressed(object sender, PointerRoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            try
            {
                PointerDevice d = Windows.Devices.Input.PointerDevice.GetPointerDevice(e.Pointer.PointerId);
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                Debug.WriteLine(ex.Message);
            }
        }

Expected behavior

I'd expect touch and stylus to work just like mouse does.
