Description
-------

Currently, there are some mixed issue in kcm touchpad related to libinput 
backend and hot plug.
There are several issues:
1. only one backend maybe used at runtime, either synaptics or libinput. But 
libinput backend will only be used if there is a libinput backend present. 
Which means if libinput touchpad is not present at login, kded will not be able 
to properly support them.
2. hotplug touchpad will always set touchpad to disabled.
3. hotplug touchpad will not get configuration applied.
4. The libinput devices detection may pick some non-touchpad device.  

To solve these problems, following changes are made:
1. Remove SynapticsBackend and LibinputBackend and add three new classes called 
XlibTouchpad/SynapticsTouchpad/LibinputTouchpad. So findTouchpad may pick up 
both synaptics or libinput device, and no need to depend on a fixed backend. 
This change also make it easier to support multiple touchpad device easier if 
needed.

2. hotplug touchpad config not being applied (bug 356923) is mainly because one 
can't apply settings to a disabled device. Change the statement order in 
handleReset, apply settings first then set enable status.

3. findTouchpad() is changed to use XListInputDevices, because it provides 
necessary information of device type in order to filter out non-touchpad 
device. xf86-input-libinput doesn't have a unique atom for touchpad, so current 
identityAtom cannot guarantee that findTouchpad always returns a touchpad 
device for libinput.

4. On my surface pro 4 system, if touchpad is unpluged, the device will be set 
to disabled automatically first, then touchpadDetached is called, which makes 
m_enabled in TouchpadDisabled always to be false after unplug the touchapd. 
This patch makes TouchpadDisabler have two different enabled property. 
m_userRequestedState only stores the user requested status, so when handleReset 
is called, it can properly set enabled state to the last user requested state.

Testing
-------

Without touchpad -> login -> plug touchpad -> settings applied to device using 
libinput driver.
unplug -> replug -> settings applied to device using libinput driver.


Disable touchpad -> applet shows up -> unplug touchpad -> applet hides -> 
replug touchpad -> touchpad is still disabled, and applet shows up -> enable 
touhcpad -> applet hides.


Thanks,

Xuetian Weng
