On small touchpads a touch that is intended to traverse much of the screen
width may start at the very edge, i.e. in the palm zone.
In that case, and if the touch moves out of the palm zone quickly enough, drop
the palm label and make it a normal touchpoint.

200 ms picked by classic trial and error. I thought at first 50ms would be
enough and it definitely isn't. 200 ms seems to be good enough here
