From: Erik Boto <erik.boto at pelagicore.com>

The previous behavior of the driver did not work properly with Qt5
QtQuick multi touch-point gestures, due to how touch-points are
reported when removing a touch-point. My interpretation of the
available documentation [1] was that the driver should report all
touch-points between SYN_REPORTs, but it is not explicitly stated so.
I've found another mail-thread [2] where the creator of the protocol
states:

"The protocol defines a generic way of sending a variable amount of
contacts. The contact count is obtained by counting the number of
non-empty finger packets between SYN_REPORT events."-Henrik Rydberg

I think this verifies my assumption that all touch-points should be
reported between SYN_REPORTs, otherwise it can not be used to obtain
the count.
