HID: wacom: Lazy-init batteries
Rather than creating batteries as part of the initial device probe, let's make the process lazy. This gives us the opportunity to prevent batteries from being created in situations where they are unnecessary. There are two cases in particular where batteries are being unnecessarily created at initialization. These are AES sensors (for which we don't know any battery status information until a battery-powered pen actually comes into prox) peripheral tablets which share HID descriptors between the wired-only and wireless-capable SKUs of a family of devices. This patch will delay battery initialization of the former until a pen actually comes into prox. It will delay battery initialization of the latter until either a pen comes into prox or a "heartbeat" packet is processed.
