moused(8): Add support for evdev protocol
The new daemon have following properties as compared with previous
incarnation:
- evdev protocol support for mices and touchpads. Additionally to
relative PS/2 and USB devices it enables console support for I2C/USB
touchpads and bluetooth mices.
- Other aged protocols like COM, raw PS/2 and X10 are dropped with only
exception of sysmouse. For those who still use them there is an
utility called msconvd(8).
- single daemon per system where hotplug is processed via devd socket.
Per device mode still supported too.
- Configuration and quirks files in libinput-compatible format.
Actually, the new moused config parser is taken from libinput.
The moused(8) can work in 2 modes:
1. Evdev support mode. It enables all previously mentioned devices.
It is enabled by deault.
I think it is require hms driver corresponding entries to be added to
/etc/devd/moused.conf otherwise it breaks existing installations and
require
moused_enable="YES" to be set as workaround of this issue
hms is loaded with devmatch entry in devd.conf rather than with moused one.
moused entries are legacy and disabled by default with
moused_nondefault_enable="NO" in /etc/defaults/rc.conf
And moused_enable="YES" is not a workaround. It is how things supposed to be.
