[osg-submissions] Wacom Tablet Support

[Robert Osfield]

Hi Philip,

I've started reviewing your changes and mostly am happy with them, but and
its a big but, the addition of a dependency of Xi and the grafting into
various CMakeLists.txt with this addition is a problem.  This is an X11
extension and as such is unlikely to be available on all systems, so there
is very high chance of breaking the build on several unix platforms.  The
CMake changes are also introducing messiness where there shouldn't be,
something that is likely to introduce errors later in the project as
different branches accidentally diverge.

The changes to osgGA I find uncontroversial so will go ahead and merge these
(an svn update will now get these).  The changes to GraphicsWindowCarbon
also look benign so I'm happy to merge these right away.  The changes to the
X11 side needs to be rethought and tackled in much less intrusive way - we
can't force a dependency on an X11 particular extension to all OSG X11 based
applications that the vast majority won't ever need.

Perhaps others in the community can suggest a better X11 way of doing the
device query without pushing changes across the board.

Cheers,
Robert.
