Bug Description

Most Peripheral settings were moved into gsetings-desktop-schemas for 3.16, since they are now shared with mutter which handles peripheral configuration for the wayland/libinput cases. For x11 g-s-d still handles most of these settings.

The migration code in g-s-d 3.16 makes it not possible to just revert the changes to the schemas, so this cherry-pick's from upstream the bits required for u-s-d/u-c-c to use the new keys and also handling migration of the settings.

Upstream removed handling of keyboard repeat settings from g-s-d, however I have kept this and just pointed u-s-d at the new keys in gsettings-desktop-schemas.

The new settings aren't entirely a 1:1 mapping to the old setting, however the only user facing change, is that touchpad disable while typing setting is removed and this is always enabled now.

mouse: Switch to new peripherals settings schema
Most peripherals settings have been moved to
gsettings-desktop-schemas.

There are some semantic differences:

* pointer and touchpad speed is now a single value in the [-1..1]
  range (from "unaccelerated" to "fast"). A value of 0 is the default;

* touchpad enabled is now an enum which can be enabled, disabled or
  disabled-on-external-mouse. This patch keeps the same UI so the last
  value is the same as disabled in the UI and can't be set for now;

* disable while typing is now always enabled so the checkbox has been
  removed;

* horizontal scrolling is always enabled when two finger scroll is
  disabled. It wasn't in the UI but we no longer need to set it since
  it doesn't exist anymore.

Seems that this is locked in with the upgrades to g-s-d and g-c-c 3.16, the latter of which is tied in with gnome-online-accounts which is blocked on webkitgtk2 in main (LP: #1466290).

So we need a decision on that one first before we can go ahead with this, AFAICS. :/

I did a brief visual/build review and it seems fine. I couldn't build the rest to test it runs (including migrates) fine, but will do when the time comes.

I have updated my g-c-c 3.16 branch to remove g-o-a 3.16 deps, so this should all be unblocked now

I'm not sure it is caused by this change, but I've opened LP: #1489730 as one finger tap no longer enabled.
