[ANNOUNCE] xf86-input-synaptics 1.7.0

[Peter Hutterer]

synaptics 1.7.0, the generic driver for touchpads is now available.
This release has seen a bunch of purges in the hope that it will make the
code more maintainable. Most of the features dropped are expected to have
few or no users, or hardware that hasn't been around for ages.

Most other fixes have found their way into the 1.6 branch already.
