Now that the receiver forwards the connect/disconnect events, we can
know when the device is available to communicate with us.
When it is ready, we can for instance retrieve its full name, which
guarantee that we always have the same name for the DJ device (the DJ
name is somewhat shorter than the HID++ name).
This mechanism is mandatory for the touchpads line, which has the
min/max information stored in the device. This information can only
be retrieved when the device is connected. So we can not populate
the input device until we are sure that the device is connected.
This patch creates a new input device for such devices. However,
this input is not bound to hid directly, so the various drivers
which wants to use it are required to process completely the
incoming reports in .raw_event().
Note that the patch in itself just adds the bits for the next
ones, and this feature is disabled by default.

The names of the DJ devices are stored in the receiver. These names
can be retrieved through a HID++ command. However, the protocol says
that you have to ask the receiver for that, not the device iteself.
Introduce a special case in the DJ handling where a device can request
its unifying name, and when such a name is given, forward it also to
the corresponding device.
On the HID++ side, the receiver talks only HID++ 1.0, so we need to
implement this part of the protocol in the module.

Devices connected through the Logitech Wireless Receiver are HID++ devices.
We can handle them here to benefit from this new module and activate
enhaced support of the various wireless touchpad or mice with touch
sensors on them.

Logitech devices use a vendor protocol to communicate various
information with the device. This protocol is called HID++,
and an exerpt can be found here:
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0BxbRzx7vEV7eWmgwazJ3NUFfQ28&usp=shar
The main difficulty which is related to this protocol is that
it is a synchronous protocol using the input reports.
So when we want to get some information from the device, we need
to wait for a matching input report.
This driver introduce this capabilities to be able to support
the multitouch mode of the Logitech Wireless Touchpad T651
(the bluetooth one). The multitouch data is available directly
from the mouse input reports, and we just need to query the device
on connect about its caracteristics.
HID++ and the touchpad features has a specific reporting mode
which uses pure HID++ reports, but Logitech told us not to use
it for this specific device. During QA, they detected that
some bluetooth input reports where lost, and so the only supported
mode is the pointer mode.
