HID: wacom: Improve generic name generation
The 'wacom_update_name' function is responsible for producing names for the input device nodes based on the hardware device name. Commit f2209d4a added the ability to strip off prefixes like "Wacom Co.,Ltd." where the prefix was immediately (and redundantly) followed by "Wacom". The 2nd-generation Intuos Pro 2 has such a prefix, but with a small error (the period and comma are swapped) that prevents the existing code from matching it. We're loath to extend the number of cases out endlessly and so instead try to be smarter about name generation. We observe that the cause of the redundant prefixes is HID combining the manufacturer and product strings of USB devices together. By using the original product name (with "Wacom" prefixed, if it does not already exist in the string) we can bypass the gyrations to find and remove redundant prefixes. Other devices either don't have a manufacturer string that needs to be removed (Bluetooth, uhid) or should have their name generated from scratch (I2C).
