[Bug 1917010] Re: Hard to detect double-clicks on the HiDPI touchscreen system

[Steve Langasek]

Per
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/UpdatePreparation#Update_the_packaging
the preferred version number here is 20.04.0+git20200908-5ubuntu0.1, not
20.04.0+git20200908-6~ubuntu21.04.1, despite the contents being
equivalent to the 20.04.0+git20200908-6 in impish.  I am reuploading
with a fixed-up changelog for cleanliness.

Also, please do not point Vcs-Git for Ubuntu packages at repositories
that are not writable by everyone who has upload rights to the package.
There are many schemas you can use to host such branches in launchpad,
writable by ~ubuntu-dev.

Bug description:
  == SRU Justification ==
  [Impact]
  Double tap desktop icons on a touchscreen barely works.

  [Fix]
  Because tapping isn't as precise as clicking, ignore the double click distance as long as the icon is tapped.

  [Test]
  Roughly double tap the desktop icon and nothing happens.
  After applying the fix, double tap can 100% open the app or directory.
  [racb] Since single click code is also being adjusted, please also test that single clicking behaviour has not changed.
  [racb] Since clicking with modifiers (holding Shift and/or Ctrl) is also being adjusted, please also test that modifier clicking behaviour has not changed.

  [Where problems could occur]
  If the new code throws any exception, clicking can also be affected.

  == Original Bug Report ==
  Double-clicks touchscreen on HiDPI system, sometime it will not be detected.
