All B-Series Lifebooks have the same touchscreen-hardware. But Dmitri's
concern is correct -- at the moment I would enforce the LBTOUCH-protocol
on external mice...

I have to fix this. I will additionally to the DMI stuff use "Status
Request". On a "Request ID"-Command the Device always answers with a
0x00 -- could this also be helpfull?

I introduced the new initialize-handler since psmouse->initialize() is
also used in psmouse-base.c. This is to prevent putting if-statements on
each place where the initialization-function for a certain protocol is
called in psmouse-base.c.

I admit since I am also using a different reconnect-function than
psmouse-base it's not such a huge benefit but think of a new
protocol/device which uses the same reconnect-function as psmouse-base
but a different init-function.

My goal was to have no dependency from psmouse-base to the
lifebook-handling (none but lifebook_detect()). Thus the indirection is
IMHO needed.
