Back in 2015-2016 when current evdev was just a fork of jceel@ GSOC project
running on my laptop, evdev headers were too volatile so I had to update them
every 2 or 3 month to make fresh libinput and libevdev buildable.
Just now libevdev development is mostly stalled and libinput has a private copy
of evdev headers so I think we can replace "linux/u?input*.h" files with
"#include <dev/evdev/*.h>" oneliners or with symlinks to reduce header
duplication.
Note: some ports like libevdev and py-evdev do a header parsing at build stage
so they should be instructed to parse actual headers rather then "#include"
stubs.
