this is for newer v2 hardware

this is for older v2, two finger touch

this is for older v2, 1/3 finger touch

V2 hardware has two flavors. Older ones that do not report pressure,
and newer ones that reports pressure and width.

With newer ones, all packets (1, 2, 3 finger touch) have the same
constant bits.

With older ones, 1/3 finger touch packets and 2 finger touch packets have
different constant bits.

With all three cases, if the constant bits are not exactly what I
expected, I consider them invalid.

Dmitry, how do you want me to improve this? not enough comments?

Thanks
