Don't let resting controllers take the laser from the mouse

Browse Source 
A controller released the 3D mouse's pointer on a single pose sample
faster than 0.35 m/s or 2 rad/s, once the mouse had been still for
500 ms. The helper polls about every 8 ms, so one noisy sample was
enough: a knock on the desk, or a tracking jump when the headset's
cameras pick a resting controller up again (#1).

A controller now has to stay over the limit for 100 ms in a row, and
only samples with a normal tracking result (Running_OK) count. The new
POINTER_CONTROLLER_PICKUP setting (1 by default, 0.5 to 5) scales both
limits; it's a slider on the Pointer page of Frametop Input Settings
and applies live. A controller picked up for real still gets the laser
back through SteamVR's hand role, which follows its touch sensors. The
release log now records the speed and spin that triggered it, to tune
the default.

The pointer settings are in `~/.config/frametop.conf`: `POINTER_SENSITIVITY`, `POINTER_IDLE`, `POINTER_WAKE_COUNTS`, `POINTER_DISTANCE`, `POINTER_CURSOR_DEG`, `POINTER_ORIGIN_FRACTION`, `POINTER_ORIGIN_MARGIN`, `POINTER_SCENE_RADIUS`, `POINTER_EDGE_REACH`, `POINTER_LASER_WIDTH`, the head follow settings `POINTER_FOLLOW`, `POINTER_LEASH_DEG`, `POINTER_LEASH_DELAY`, `POINTER_LEASH_RETURN`, and `POINTER_FOLLOW_REACH`, and the gaze mode settings `POINTER_GAZE`, `POINTER_GAZE_RETAKE`, `POINTER_GAZE_NUDGE_MAX`, `POINTER_GAZE_HOLD`, and `POINTER_GAZE_SHOW`. The example config explains each. Frametop Input Settings changes them live; after editing the file by hand, restart the relay or the helper.
