Fixing a regression introduced with 2.2.3.

The fix to Bug #21832 in 2.2.3 prevented Alps touchpads from working with
the evdev driver. These touchpads announce both relative and absolute axes,
events from the latter get ignored with the fix to 21832.

The fix special-cases touchpad initialization to give absolute axes
precedence over relative if a touchpad or touchscreen is found.
For more info see Bug 23126.
