usb/hid: add hid_pointer_activate, use it
HID reorganziation broke the usb tablet in windows xp. The reason is
that xp activates idle before it starts polling, which creates a
chicken-and-egg issue: We don't call hid_pointer_poll because there are
no pending events. We don't get any events because the activation code
in hid_pointer_poll is never executed and thus all pointer events are
routed to the PS/2 mouse by qemu.
Fix this by creating a hid_pointer_activate function and call it from
usb-hid when the guest sets the idle state.

Title:
With VNC, "-usbdevice tablet" no longer makes mouse pointers line up
Status in QEMU:
New
Bug description:
I use qemu in VNC mode. In order to get the client and server mouse
pointers to line up, I've had to use the "-usbdevice tablet" option.
This no longer works, and it behaves the same as if the option is not
there. This makes my VMs unusable to me.
Here's how I'm booting WinXP:
qemu-system-x86_64 -vga std -drive
cache=writeback,index=0,media=disk,file=winxp.img -k en-us -m 2048
-smp 2 -vnc :3101 -usbdevice tablet -boot c -enable-kvm &
The Windows install hasn't changed, only qemu.
I'm running this version of QEMU:
QEMU emulator version 0.15.0 (qemu-kvm-0.15.0), Copyright (c)
2003-2008 Fabrice Bellard
I'll see about upgrading to 0.15.1, but since I haven't seen other
reports of this particular problem in your DB, I'm assuming that this
problem has not been fixed between 0.15.0 and 0.15.1.
