Merge lp:~brendan-donegan/checkbox/bug886129_touch_as_mouse into lp:checkbox

[Brendan Donegan]

This change very simply adds 'device.category == TOUCH' as an accepted requirement for running the input/mouse test. At the moment some people with multitouch touchpads and touchscreens are getting the input devices category skipped, causing their system to get one star on the Ubuntu Friendly site.

I also took the opportunity to generalise the language used by the test to say 'pointing device' instead of 'mouse' specifically. If that's too controversial I can revert it.

This fix is for a bug that has been milestoned for the first Oneiric SRU so it would be good to get it merged ASAP

This looks OK, thanks! merging...
