feat: Implement semantic S-Pen pointer indices
- Index 0: Current cursor position (always available during hover/contact) - Index 1: Tip contact coordinates (only active during tip press) - Index 2: Barrel button coordinates (only active during barrel press) - Preserves legacy finger touch multi-touch behavior using motion_ptr - Gives cores semantic meaning rather than arbitrary Android indices - Removes vestigial button mapping complexity 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <[email protected]>
