975bb74284 Passthrough mouse events
To not block mice that have keys, which end up grabbed due to generic
configurations that simply filter anything that responds to CAPSLOCK/ESC.

0c8326646a Expand mouse support
Until now mouse support existed just as side effect of muxing and that
mouse clicks are registered as key events. This expands the support for
mouse wheel and movement.

bb09cd8d9a Discard MSC_SCAN events
Given that only EV_KEY events are being mapped, without their scancode
counterparts, we just drop all scancode events to avoid having to map
them too, to syncing it with the corresponding mapped keys. This is
expected to be harmless.

caps2esc - transforming the most useless key ever in the most useful one
usage: caps2esc [-h | [-m mode] [-t delay]]
options:
-h show this message and exit
-t delay used for key sequences (default: 20000 microseconds)
-m mode 0: default
- caps as esc/ctrl
- esc as caps

2: useful on 60% layouts

```
`caps2esc` is an [_Interception Tools_][interception-tools] plugin. A suggested `caps2esc` is an [_Interception Tools_][interception-tools] plugin. A suggested
`udevmon` job configuration is: `udevmon` job configuration (check the [_Interception Tools_
README][interception-tools] for alternatives) is:
```yaml ```yaml
- JOB: "intercept -g $DEVNODE | caps2esc | uinput -d $DEVNODE" - JOB: intercept -g $DEVNODE | caps2esc | uinput -d $DEVNODE
DEVICE: DEVICE:
EVENTS: EVENTS:

``` ```

## Mouse/Touchpad Support
After _Interception Tools_ 0.3.2, `caps2esc` can observe (or replace) mouse
events. An example configuration taken from my laptop:
```yaml
SHELL: [zsh, -c]
---
- CMD: mux -c caps2esc
- JOB: mux -i caps2esc | caps2esc | uinput -c /etc/interception/keyboard.yaml
- JOB: intercept -g $DEVNODE | mux -o caps2esc
DEVICE:
LINK: /dev/input/by-path/platform-i8042-serio-0-event-kbd
- JOB: intercept $DEVNODE | mux -o caps2esc
DEVICE:
LINK: /dev/input/by-path/platform-i8042-serio-4-event-mouse
```
For more information on the topic, check the [_Interception Tools_
README][interception-tools] about usage of the `mux` tool and hybrid virtual
device configurations.
