Add two finger scroll functionality to touchpad #31

I had a thought a while ago that I should document here.

Don't operating systems usually handle gestures on their own? So maybe I just need to send proper events for finger up/down and ensure that it works for multiple fingers at the same time, then the OS can figure it out? I think? If that's all true, I'll probably just make it compliant with a standard precision touchpad spec and it should just work™

I believe on Windows you'd have to have make the HID device compatible with the native Windows Precision Driver to use the native touchpad features (Windows 8.1 and above) https://learn.microsoft.com/windows-hardware/design/component-guidelines/touchpad-protocol-implementation.
