The capability flags indicate which information is valid in the touch
points. Previously there was no way to tell if e.g. the value returned
by pressure() is actually the value provided by the driver/device or
it is just something bogus due to pressure not being supported.
The points' flags return information about the individual touch
points. One use case is to differentiate between touches made by
finger and pen.
Velocity, if available, is now also exposed.
Each touch point can now contain an additional list of "raw"
positions. These points are not reported individually but are taken
into account in some way by the underlying device and drivers to
generate the final, "accurate" touch point. In case the underlying
drivers expose these additional positions, they are made available in
the lists returned by the touch points' rawScreenPosition().
The raw positions are only available in screen coordinates to prevent
wasting time with mapping from global positions in applications that
do not use this data. Instead, apps can query the QWindow to which the
touch event was sent via QTouchEvent::window() and can call
mapFromGlobal() manually if they need local raw positions.
The capability and device type information is now held in a new
QTouchDevice class. Each touch event will contain only a pointer to
one of the global QTouchDevice instances. On top of type and
capability, the new class also contains a name which can be used to
differentiate between multiple touch input devices (i.e. to tell from
which one a given QTouchEvent originates from).
The introduction of QTouchDevice has three implications: The
QTouchEvent constructor and QWindowSystemInterface::handleTouchEvent
need to be changed (to pass a QTouchDevice pointer instead of merely a
device type value), and each platform or generic plug-in is now
responsible for registering one or more devices using the new API
QWindowSystemInterface::registerTouchDevice.

These comments were mostly empty or inaccurate. Appropriate naming of
tests and appropriate placement of tests within the directory tree
provide more reliable indicators of what is being tested.

The commit that disabled this test a few days after it was originally
comitted (bda80c4b in the grafted history) makes it clear that this
test was never valid.

This commit re-enables tests that are assumed to be ok by now, since they:
- Have been passing in CI for a long time recently (more precisely, not failed once in pulse run range 730-829).
- Did not have any known issues associated with them.
Note that not all of these tests were disabled as a result of QTBUG-21402.

qttest_p4.prf was added as a convenience for Qt's own autotests in Qt4.
It enables various crufty undocumented magic, of dubious value.
Stop using it, and explicitly enable the things from it which we want.
