Code review comment for lp:~andreas-pokorny/mir/add-option-to-disable-acceleration

Looking at the libinput code and docs, it gives conflicting answers as to what "flat acceleration" means. In the code it kind of looks like "flat acceleration" means "zero acceleration with constant velocity multiplier".

Please check my findings but I think this means LIBINPUT_CONFIG_ACCEL_PROFILE_FLAT is incorrectly named and perhaps in most profiles there is zero acceleration in the physical sense. So more accurate names would be:

  MirPointerAcceleration -> MirPointerSpeed
  mir_pointer_acceleration_none -> mir_pointer_speed_native
  mir_pointer_acceleration_constant -> mir_pointer_speed_constant (with bias 0 same as native?)
  mir_pointer_acceleration_adaptive -> mir_pointer_speed_accelerated

Sorry to be pedantic, but it's libinput that has apparently confused the physics terminology. We should try not to copy their mistakes, if they are mistakes...
