Benjamin Tissoires ab94e562ed HID: logitech: move dj devices to the HID++ 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.

Benjamin Tissoires 2f31c52529 HID: Introduce hidpp, a module to handle Logitech hid++ devices
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:

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.
