Summary:
Increases minimum Qt version to 5.7. This allows to drop the pre-5.7
virtual keyboard and various ifdefs for now unsupported versions.

Let's get all debug events from libinput and forward them to a custom
log handler. This in turn can pass them to Qt's categorized logging.
So it's still easy to
* disable all libinput related logging
* configure the log level
Both was not possible before.
With this change libinput is less noisy and only prints errors to stderr.
In addition one could install a dedicated log handler and forward to
qCDebug and friends.
LogindIntegration starts monitoring the Active property on the session
and emits a signal when the state changes. The LibInput::Connection
connects to this signal during the setup and uses it to suspend/resume
the libinput context.
With libinput we have the problem that we need to have privileges to
open the device files. In order to not need wrappers or suid bits, we
use logind. This means that kwin_wayland has to be the session controler.
A LogindIntegration is added to connect to logind and wrap the dbus
calls. This is based on the logind integration done for ksld in
ksmserver. The LogindIntegration is started by Workspace and the
InputRedirection tries to become the session controller and starts the
libinput integration only after this succeeded.
Libinput is an optional dependency for getting low level input events.
As opening the input devices requires root privs this is rather
pointless in the current state. But there is a small added test app which
can be executed with root privs to demonstrate the functionality. To
properly get input events we need a wrapper like it's used in weston.
So far the following is setup:
* opening devices found by udev
* forwarding keyboard events to InputRedirection
* forwarding pointer button events to InputRedirection
* forwarding pointer axis events to InputRedirection
* signals emitted for pointer motion events
Pointer motion events need some further work as they are provided
as delta events. We need to track that and map them properly.
Also missing are touch events due to me not having a touch screen.
It should be fairly simple to setup the touch events, though.
Also hotplugging of devices is not yet implemented.
