HID: lenovo: Detect quirk-free fw on cptkbd and stop applying workaround
Built-in firmware of cptkbd handles scrolling by itself (when middle button is pressed) but with issues: it does not support horizontal and hi-res scrolling and upon middle button release it sends middle button click even if there was a scrolling event. Commit 3cb5ff02 ("HID: lenovo: Hide middle-button press until release") workarounds last issue but it's impossible to workaround scrolling-related issues without firmware modification. Likely, Dennis Schneider has reverse engineered the firmware and provided an instruction on how to patch it [1]. However, aforementioned workaround prevents userspace (libinput) from knowing exact moment when middle button has been pressed down and performing "On-Button scrolling". This commit detects correctly-behaving patched firmware if cursor movement events has been received during middle button being pressed and stops applying workaround for this device.
