conf: Use xf86-input-libinput by default

Don't install legacy X input drivers for any machines by default,
RRECOMMEND xf86-input-libinput instead.

This is the setup suggested by upstream: install only libinput by
default, but let niche legacy drivers sort higher in configuration
so they get chosen if installed. So the order is:
 evdev < libinput < (synaptics|vmmouse|...)

This also removes vmmouse X driver from the qemu config. If a VMware
virtual mouse device really needs to be supported, we should enable
CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2_VMMOUSE in kernel instead: that is directly supported
by the libinput X driver.

Fixes [YOCTO #10195].
