input: mt: Add hovering distance axis

Browse Source 
Touch devices capable of hovering, i.e., fingers detected a
distance from the surface, are not supported by the current
input MT protocol. This patch adds ABS_MT_DISTANCE, which may
be used to indicate the distance between the contact and the
surface.
