Collect information about current mouse

[jspjutNV]

This is a feature to collect information about the mouse being used and store it in the database. We'd like the following:

• Mouse make and model
• Model variant (if any)
• Firmware version
• Polling rate
• Click latency
• Sensor latency
• Mouse DPI (may not be possible)

The best we can probably do here for now is some sort of VID/PID lookup for HID devices. We can then lookup these VID/PIDs in a table like this one to get the vendor/product name and correlate additional info from there. It might make just as much sense to just write the mouse name into the database and do this lookup when processing data.

Its worth pointing out that we should think about systems that have multiple mice/keyboards connected and what to do in that case.

I'm not sure there is a (general purpose) mechanism in place to get at things like the firmware version.
