This has now been deprecated in libinput, the only known user of this
property. It was never set for any device and weston and mutter, maybe
other compositors, never added the code required to parse it.
The benefit we could get in the UI from handling tilt differently to
wheel is tiny and the lack of support shows that it isn't of interest to
anyone. Let's remove this.

Chromebook keyboards have a top row which generates f1-f10 key codes but
the keys have media symbols printed on them. A simple scan code to key
code mapping to the correct media keys makes the f1-f10 inaccessible. To
properly use the keyboard a custom key code to symbol mapping in xbk is
required (a variant of the chromebook xkb model is already upstream).
Other devices have similar problems.
This commit makes it possible to specify which xkb model should be used
for a specific device by setting XKB_FIXED_MODEL.
pyparsing 2.3.1/2.4.0 had some changes to grouping of And matches, and as a
result we'd report 0 properties and 0 matches, and not really do any checks.
With this change we get identical behaviour for pyparsing 2.3.1, 2.4.0, 2.4.2:
$ hwdb/parse_hwdb.py
hwdb/60-evdev.hwdb: 72 match groups, 94 matches, 262 properties
hwdb/60-input-id.hwdb: 3 match groups, 3 matches, 4 properties
hwdb/60-keyboard.hwdb: 173 match groups, 256 matches, 872 properties
Keycode KBD_LCD_MENU1 unknown
Keycode KBD_LCD_MENU4 unknown
Keycode KBD_LCD_MENU2 unknown
Keycode KBD_LCD_MENU3 unknown
hwdb/60-sensor.hwdb: 101 match groups, 120 matches, 105 properties
hwdb/70-joystick.hwdb: 2 match groups, 3 matches, 2 properties
hwdb/70-mouse.hwdb: 104 match groups, 119 matches, 123 properties
hwdb/70-pointingstick.hwdb: 8 match groups, 30 matches, 11 properties
hwdb/70-touchpad.hwdb: 6 match groups, 9 matches, 6 properties
pyparsing sometimes changes behaviour and stops giving matches. This should
allow us to detect such scenario. With this change, parse_hwdb fails with
pyparsing 2.4 on F31.
