Input: define INPUT_PROP_ACCELEROMETER behavior
Spell out what this property means to userspace. If the property is set, all
directional axes must be accelerometer axes, any other axes are left as-is.
This allows an accelerometer device to e.g. have an ABS_WHEEL.
It is not permitted to mix normal directional axes and accelerometer axes on
the same device node.
