Tags may be a list of comma-separated strings that match against a MatchTag
InputClass section. If any of the tags specified for a device match against
the MatchTag of the section, this match is evaluated true and passed on to
the next match condition.
Tags are specified as "input.tags" (hal) or "ID_INPUT.tags" (udev), the
value of the tags is case-sensitive and require an exact match (not a
substring match).
i.e. "quirk" will not match "QUIRK", "need_quirk" or "quirk_needed".
Example configuration:
udev:
ENV{ID_INPUT.tags}="foo,bar"
hal:
<merge key="input.tags" type="string">foo,bar</merge>
xorg.conf:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "foobar quirks"
MatchTag "foo|foobar"
Option "Foobar" "on"
EndSection
Where the xorg.conf section matches against any device with the tag "foo"
or tag "foobar" set.

Move tokenize out of the parser, make it a dix util function instead.
Splitting a string into multiple substrings is useful by other places, so
let's use it across the line. Future users include config/hal, config/udev
and of course the parser.
Example usage:
char **substrings = xstrtokenize(my_string, "\n");

In order to keep the number of InputClass sections manageable, allow
matches to contain multiple arguments. The arguments will be separated
by the '|' character. This allows a policy to apply to multiple types of
devices. For example:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Inverted Mice"
MatchProduct "Crazy Mouse|Silly Mouse"
Option "InvertX" "yes"
EndSection
This applies to the MatchProduct, MatchVendor and MatchDevicePath
entries. Currently there is no way to escape characters, so names or
patterns cannot contain '|'.

Currently Xorg uses hal's fdi files to decide what configuration options
are applied to automatically added input devices. This is sub-optimal
since it requires users to use a new and different configuration store
than xorg.conf.
The InputClass section attempts to provide a system similar to hal where
configuration can be applied to all devices with certain attributes. For
now, devices can be matched to:
* A substring of the product name via a MatchProduct entry
* A substring of the vendir name via a MatchVendor entry
* A pathname pattern of the device file via a MatchDevicePath entry
* A device type via boolean entries for MatchIsKeyboard, MatchIsPointer,
MatchIsJoystick, MatchIsTablet, MatchIsTouchpad and MatchIsTouchscreen
See the INPUTCLASS section in xorg.conf(5) for more details.
