[Impact]
Pointstick and its left right buttons don't work on EliteBook 859 G7.

[Fix]
Use the MT_CLS_WIN_8_FORCE_MULTI_INPUT so the usage collection for
pointsitck and touchpad won't merge together.

[Test]
With the patch applied, pointstick and its left and right buttons start
to work.

[Where problems could occur]
The quirk limits to one specific touchpad/pointstick combo, so
regression would be highly unlikely.
