The rotary encoder driver only supports returning input events
for ABS_* axes, this adds support for REL_* axes. The relative
axis input event is reported as -1 for each counter-clockwise
step and +1 for each clockwise step.
The ability to clamp the position of ABS_* axes between 0 and
a maximum of "steps" has also been added.

+signals (because of an inverting buffer or other reasons). The encoder
+can be set up to deliver input information as either an absolute or relative

+absolute axes the position of the encoder can either roll over between zero

Because GPIO to IRQ mapping is platform specific, this information must
be given in seperately to the driver. See the example below.
