Touchpad Emulator Update - Automatic Rotation, Keyboard Toggle, Demo with External Monitor

Touchpad Emulator is a little program I'm working on for Linux phones to be able to use desktop applications easier on a small screen.  The program seeks to emulate a laptop trackpad using the phone's touchscreen to move a cursor and simulate mouse input via tapping.  With Touchpad Emulator, it is feasible to use an external monitor with the PinePhone without also having an external mouse connected.  You can even use the PinePhone's on-screen keyboard to type on applications on the external monitor.
