A dial is a tool you place on a multitouch surface which reports its
orientation or a relative angle of rotation when rotating its knob.
Some examples are the Dell Totem (on the Canvas 27"), the Microsoft Dial,
or the Griffin Powermate, though the later can't be put on a touch surface.
We give some extra space to account for other types of fingers if we need
(MT_TOOL_THUMB)
Slightly change the documentation to not make it mandatory to update each
MT_TOOL we add.

The current hid-multitouch driver only allow the report of two
orientations, vertical and horizontal. We use the Azimuth orientation
usage 0x3F under the Digitizer usage page to report orientation if the
device supports it.
Changelog:
v1 -> v2:
- Fix commit message.
- Remove resolution reporting for ABS_MT_ORIENTATION.
v2 -> v3:
- Fix commit message.
v3 -> v4:
- Fix ABS_MT_ORIENTATION ABS param range.
- Don't set ABS_MT_ORIENTATION in ABS_DG_HEIGHT when it is already
set by ABS_DG_AZIMUTH.
v4 -> v5:
- Improve multi-touch-protocol.rst documentation.
