On touchscreen machine, if the trackpad was previously disabled using mouse
which isn't present now, there is no way to enable it. It now shows the slider
when trackpad is disable or if mouse/touchscreen is present.
Fixes bug #703946
...to "Natural scrolling". The previous name was a little bit
disgusting, and people didn't understand its purpose. Using the
same name as OSX means that people will either know it, or be less
afraid of testing it.

Very few of the panel comments provide information that is very
useful. Update them to supplement the panel descriptions - this
will make the search results more helpful.

Make it possible for panels to go all the way to the edge of the
shell. This is particularly important for panels that scroll, such
as the new power panel. All other panels are changed to compensate
for the loss of external padding.

This makes loading faster, with less I/O, avoids unnecessary
code duplication (around 1k lines shaved), and ensures that
all the panels link and work appropriately.
By the same token, it will stop external panels from being
created, and loaded.

This prevents window resizes from making the first visit to the
mouse test area one that doesn't scroll all the way to the bottom.
1. Open System Settings
2. Open a panel that's smaller than the mouse one (eg. Background)
3. Back to overview
4. Open Mouse panel, click on test button

Reverts part of 109b369199
Good idea in principle, albeit the hardware gets in our way. In
synaptics 1.4 two-finger emulation was enabled by default on devices
that reported finger width but had to since revert this. The hardware
doesn't really separate width and pressure, so a hard tap off a finger
gives a high width, a wide finger gives a high pressure on light
touches. We got spurious right-click presses when two-finger
emulation was enabled.
Now we have the control-center providing a checkbox for two-finger
emulation but it doesn't enable emulation, which to the users appears as if
two-finger scrolling is broken
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=738123).
We now disable the checkbox again for hardware that doesn't do two-fingers.
it's not reliable and we're likely to see further bugs when the spurious right
clicks take effect
