hwdb: add a hwdb file to override ID_INPUT assignments

The input_id builtin assigns the various ID_INPUT based on the exported evdev
bits. In some cases, the device may not have the properties required to label
a device as one specific type but the physical form factor is clear.
e.g. in the case of #7197 it's a tablet pad that does not have x/y axes which
the kernel exports for pads for historical reasons.

A custom override is needed, best to be solved with a hwdb entry.

+# This file is part of systemd.

+# The lookup keys are composed in:
+#   60-input-id.rules
+#
+# Note: The format of the "input-id:" prefix match key is a
+# contract between the rules file and the hardware data, it might
+# change in later revisions to support more or better matches, it
+# is not necessarily expected to be a stable ABI.
+#
+# Match string formats:
+# id-input:modalias:<modalias>
+#
+# To add local entries, create a new file
+#   /etc/udev/hwdb.d/61-input-id-local.hwdb
+# and add your rules there. To load the new rules execute (as root):
+#   systemd-hwdb update
+#   udevadm trigger /dev/input/eventXX
+# where /dev/input/eventXX is the device in question. If in
+# doubt, simply use /dev/input/event* to reload all input rules.
+#
+# If your changes are generally applicable, preferably send them as a pull
+# request to
+#   https://github.com/systemd/systemd
+# or create a bug report on https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues and
+# include your new rules, a description of the device, and the output of
+#   udevadm info /dev/input/eventXX.
+#
+# This file must only be used where the input_id builtin assigns the wrong
+# properties or lacks the assignment of some properties. This is almost
+# always caused by a device not adhering to the standard of the device's
+# type.
+#
+# Allowed properties are:
+#    ID_INPUT
+#    ID_INPUT_ACCELEROMETER, ID_INPUT_MOUSE,
+#    ID_INPUT_POINTINGSTICK, ID_INPUT_TOUCHSCREEN, ID_INPUT_TOUCHPAD,
+#    ID_INPUT_TABLET, ID_INPUT_TABLET_PAD, ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK, ID_INPUT_KEY,
+#    ID_INPUT_KEYBOARD, ID_INPUT_SWITCH, ID_INPUT_TRACKBALL
+#
+#    ID_INPUT
+#       * MUST be set when ANY of ID_INPUT_* is set
+#       * MUST be unset when ALL of ID_INPUT_*  are unset
+#
+#    ID_INPUT_TABLET
+#       * MUST be set when setting ID_INPUT_TABLET_PAD
+#
+# Allowed values are 1 and 0 to set or unset, repsectively.
+#
+# NOT allowed in this file are:
+#    ID_INPUT_WIDTH_MM, ID_INPUT_HEIGHT_MM, ID_INPUT_TOUCHPAD_INTEGRATION
+#
+
+# Example:
+# id-input:modalias:input:b0003v1234pABCD*
+#  ID_INPUT_TOUCHPAD=1
+#  ID_INPUT=1

+# Sort by brand, model
