Whiskers: Increase size threshold for palms
The touch size reported by the whiskers touchpad increases as more
fingers are added. As a result, when there are four fingers they are
often incorrectly classified as palms. This CL drastically increases the
palm detection threshold for touch size when there are multiple fingers,
relying only on pressure for palm detection in those cases.
BUG=chromium:1049425
TEST=Replay feedback reports complaining about missed gestures with new
config: Gestures are detected correctly.
Perform manual testing to check for correct detection of 1-4 fingers
with and without a palm present.
