api: overhaul pointer API

- Rename `CursorMoved` to `PointerMoved`.
- Rename `CursorEntered` to `PointerEntered`.
- Rename `CursorLeft` to `PointerLeft`.
- Rename `MouseInput` to `PointerButton`.
- Add `position` to every `PointerEvent`.
- Remove `Touch`, which is folded into the `Pointer*` events.
- New `PointerType` added to `PointerEntered` and `PointerLeft`,
  signifying which pointer type is the source of this event.
- New `PointerSource` added to `PointerMoved`, similar to `PointerType`
  but holding additional data.
- New `ButtonSource` added to `PointerButton`, similar to `PointerType`
  but holding pointer type specific buttons. Use
  `ButtonSource::mouse_button()` to easily normalize any pointer button
  type to a generic mouse button.
- In the same spirit rename `DeviceEvent::MouseMotion` to `PointerMotion`.
- Remove `Force::Calibrated::altitude_angle`.

   Keep in mind that handles do not auto-upgrade after permissions are granted and have to be
   re-created to make full use of this feature.
-- Add `Touch::finger_id` with a new type `FingerId`.
-- On Web and Windows, add `FingerIdExt*::is_primary()`, exposing a way to determine
-  the primary finger in a multi-touch interaction.
 - Implement `Clone`, `Copy`, `Debug`, `Deserialize`, `Eq`, `Hash`, `Ord`, `PartialEq`, `PartialOrd`
   and `Serialize` on many types.
 - Add `MonitorHandle::current_video_mode()`.
 - Add basic iOS IME support. The soft keyboard can now be shown using `Window::set_ime_allowed`.
 - On macOS, add `WindowExtMacOS::set_borderless_game` and `WindowAttributesExtMacOS::with_borderless_game`
   to fully disable the menu bar and dock in Borderless Fullscreen as commonly done in games.
 - Add `WindowId::into_raw()` and `from_raw()`.
+- Add `PointerKind`, `PointerSource`, `ButtonSource`, `FingerId` and `position` to all pointer
+  events as part of the pointer event overhaul.
 
 ### Changed

   To migrate, you can probably just replace all instances of `inner_size` with `surface_size` in your codebase.
 - Every event carrying a `DeviceId` now uses `Option<DeviceId>` instead. A `None` value signifies that the
   device can't be uniquely identified.
+- Pointer `WindowEvent`s were overhauled. The new events can handle any type of pointer, serving as
+  a single pointer input source. Now your application can handle any pointer type without having to
+  explicitly handle e.g. `Touch`:
+  - Rename `CursorMoved` to `PointerMoved`.
+  - Rename `CursorEntered` to `PointerEntered`.
+  - Rename `CursorLeft` to `PointerLeft`.
+  - Rename `MouseInput` to `PointerButton`.
+  - Add `position` to every `PointerEvent`.
+  - `PointerMoved` is **not sent** after `PointerEntered` anymore.
+  - Remove `Touch`, which is folded into the `Pointer*` events.
+  - New `PointerKind` added to `PointerEntered` and `PointerLeft`, signifying which pointer type is
+    the source of this event.
+  - New `PointerSource` added to `PointerMoved`, similar to `PointerKind` but holding additional
+    data.
+  - New `ButtonSource` added to `PointerButton`, similar to `PointerKind` but holding pointer type
+    specific buttons. Use `ButtonSource::mouse_button()` to easily normalize any pointer button
+    type to a generic mouse button.
+  - New `FingerId` added to `PointerKind::Touch` and `PointerSource::Touch` able to uniquely
+    identify a finger in a multi-touch interaction. Replaces the old `Touch::id`.
+  - On Web and Windows, add `FingerIdExt*::is_primary()`, exposing a way to determine
+    the primary finger in a multi-touch interaction.
+  - In the same spirit rename `DeviceEvent::MouseMotion` to `PointerMotion`.
+  - Remove `Force::Calibrated::altitude_angle`.
