Peter Hutterer c2d0b3b437 xfree86: store the InputAttributes in the input device.
InputAttributes largely decide which configuration values get merged from
the xorg.conf.d snippets. While they are available in the config backend,
they are not available for any other callers of NewInputDeviceRequest().

Drivers implementing driver-side hotplugging do not have access to these
attributes and cannot have xorg.conf.d snippets specific to dependent
devices. For example, the following case cannot work right now:

Section "InputClass"
        MatchProduct "Wacom"
        Option "PressCurve" "0 0 100 100"
        ...
EndSection

Section "InputClass"
        MatchProduct "Wacom"
        MatchProduct "eraser"
        Option "PressCurve" "10 10 50 50"
        ...
EndSection

The second section is not triggered, as the wacom driver cannot supply the
InputAttributes to NewInputDeviceRequest().

Add the attributes to the IDevRec and merge them into the InputInfoRec to
make them accessible in the driver. This changes the ABI for input drivers.

					X Server

The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.

Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.

For a comprehensive overview of X Server and X Window System, consult the
following article:
