To solve _this_bug_ as the description states it is probably much simpler:
We should scale the number of integer wheel events sent to Qt according to the
float magnitude of the Mir vscroll axis. So QtMir should accumulate vscroll
values as a float and only emit them to Qt each time that value ticks over an
integer value.
That will correct the relative scrolling distances being
disproportionate between mice and touchpads.

Bug description:
Touchpad scrolling is disproportionately faster than mouse wheel
scrolling in Unity8 (web browser and system settings).
I can only say this with confidence today because I implemented
accurate smooth scrolling in Xmir yesterday, so I know how it should
behave.
It's possible QtMir is overreacting to the large number of events that
touchpads generate compared to a mouse wheel, without taking into
account the scroll magnitude of each one is smaller.
