HID: wacom: Override incorrect logical maximum contact identifier



It apears that devices designed around Wacom's G11 chipset (e.g. Lenovo
ThinkPad Yoga 260, Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga, Dell XPS 12 9250, Dell Venue
8 Pro 5855, etc.) suffer from a common issue in their HID descriptors.
The logical maximum is not updated for the "Contact Identifier" usage,
leaving it as just "1" despite these devices being capable of tracking
far more touches.

Commit 60a22186 began ignoring usages with out-of-range values,
causing problems for devices based on this chipset. Touches after
the first will have an out-of-range Contact Identifier, and ignoring
that usage will cause the kernel to incorrectly slot each finger's
events (along with all the knock-on userspace effects that entails).

This commit checks for these buggy descriptors and updates the maximum
where required. Prior chipsets have used "255" as the maximum (and the
G11, at least, doesn't seem to actually use IDs outside the range of
1..CONTACTMAX) so continue using this value.
