samsung-a6plte: new device

Administrator requested to merge samsung-a6plte into master

Samsung Galaxy A6+ (2018) already has mainline support in linux-postmarketos-qcom-msm8953, original mainline work has been done by Junak. I wrote a detailed guide on how to install it on the wiki. GPU binning is disabled so that GTK4 can work without artifacts and modem is disabled too because it was making the device crash.

Things working:

  • Touch
  • Display
  • WiFi and Bluetooth
  • Battery
  • Charging
  • Rotation sensor
  • USB OTG
  • Vibration motor

Broken things:

  • Camera drivers
  • GPU is laggy in Phosh
  • Audio
  • Modem
  • NFC

For pointercal: Not needed

Screen dimension 1080x2220
Touchscreen dimension (reported by evtest) 4095x4095
ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID: 65535
  1080/4095*65535 = ~17284
  2220/4095*65535 = ~35528
