This is especially a problem for the cursor tool which can be legitimately
left on the tablet. It wobbles by a couple of device units, resulting in
continuous axis updates to the caller. Pre-filter any of these events by the
axis' fuzz value so we don't even process them.

For ABS_DISTANCE which doesn't have a fuzz we hard-code a minimum fuzz of 2.
This should eventually land in the udev hwdb though.
