Touchpad is not disabled in tablet mode (libinput) #4

I think because these buttons act as keyboard keys, they are disabled in tablet mode, which is not desired behaviour. I found this libinput issue which appears to be the same issue (albeit with a different device): https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103749

Similarly, the touchpad stays enabled in tablet mode.

Both of these probably need changes in libinput. I might have a look at doing this as some point, but don't count on it.

Okay, maybe actually the buttons do work in tablet mode. I think I might've had the keys grabbed by my window manager and so I didn't see them in xev.

The touchpad is still enabled in tablet mode though.
