hwdb: deprecate the POINTINGSTICK_CONST_ACCEL property
The only known consumer of this property was libinput but it stopped using this property since libinput 1.9 (released Oct 2017). This property is arguably not one that should be in systemd anyway - it's not a hardware-specific property but rather a factor of the acceleration method employed by whatever userspace handles the events. Deprecate it but leave the values in place for backwards compatibility.
