ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add input device support to hotkey subdriver

Add input device support to the hotkey subdriver.

Hot keys that have a valid keycode mapping are reported through the input
layer if the input device is open.  Otherwise, they will be reported as
ACPI events, as they were before.

Scan codes are reported (using EV_MSC MSC_SCAN events) along with EV_KEY
KEY_UNKNOWN events.

For backwards compatibility purposes, hot keys that used to be reported
through ACPI events are not mapped to anything meaningful by default.
Userspace is supposed to remap them if it wants to use the input device for
hot key reporting.

This patch is based on a patch by Richard Hughes <hughsient@gmail.com>.

+The ThinkPad firmware does not allow one to differentiate when most hot
+keys are pressed or released (either that, or we don't know how to, yet).
+For these keys, the driver generates a set of events for a key press and
+immediately issues the same set of events for a key release.  It is
+unknown by the driver if the ThinkPad firmware triggered these events on
+hot key press or release, but the firmware will do it for either one, not
+both.
+
+If a key is mapped to KEY_RESERVED, it generates no input events at all,
+and it may generate a legacy thinkpad-acpi ACPI hotkey event.
+
+If a key is mapped to KEY_UNKNOWN, it generates an input event that
+includes an scan code, and it may also generate a legacy thinkpad-acpi
+ACPI hotkey event.
+
+If a key is mapped to anything else, it will only generate legacy
+thinkpad-acpi ACPI hotkey events if nobody has opened the input device.
+
+For userspace backwards-compatibility purposes, the keycode map is
+initially filled with KEY_RESERVED and KEY_UNKNOWN mappings for scan codes
+0x00 to 0x10 (and maybe others).
