Register the Synaptics device as a special multitouch device with certain
quirks that may improve usability of the touchpad device.

Notes:
Theory:
I think the Synaptics device in the related email to the linux-input
mailing list requires certain quirks like MT_QUIRK_HOVERING to correctly
reconfigure the distance configuration for multitouch events. This might
explain why light touches were not registered originally when
MT_CLS_DEFAULT was used by default for the device. Would like to have
this patch tested before being merged. A Tested-by: git trailer can then
be appended.
