The ioctl definition for UI_SET_PHYS is ambiguous because it is defined
with size = sizeof(char*) but is expected to be given a variable length
string. Add a deprecation notice for UI_SET_PHYS and provide
UI_SET_PHYS_STR(len) which expects a size from the user.
Also support setting the uniq attribute of the input device. The uniq
attribute is used as a unique identifier for the connected device.
For example, uinput devices created by BlueZ will store the address of
the connected device as the uniq property.

Hi input maintainers,
Here is an updated patch that refactors the ioctl handlers (properly
allowing the size to be set from userspace). When calling the new
ioctls, the call signature will look like this:
```
ioctl(fd, UI_SET_PHYS_STR(18), "00:11:22:33:44:55");
```
I've tested this on a Chromebook running kernel v4.19 with a sample
program compiled for both 32-bit (i.e. gcc -m32 test.c) and 64-bit.
The final uinput device looks like this:
```
udevadm info -a -p /devices/virtual/input/input18
Udevadm info starts with the device specified by the devpath and then
walks up the chain of parent devices. It prints for every device
found, all possible attributes in the udev rules key format.
A rule to match, can be composed by the attributes of the device
and the attributes from one single parent device.
looking at device '/devices/virtual/input/input18':
KERNEL=="input18"
SUBSYSTEM=="input"
DRIVER==""
ATTR{inhibited}=="0"
ATTR{name}=="Test"
ATTR{phys}=="00:00:00:33:44:55"
ATTR{properties}=="0"
ATTR{uniq}=="00:11:22:00:00:00"
```
Changes in v4:
- Added uinput_get_user_str
Changes in v3:
- Added UI_SET_PHYS_STR(len) and UI_SET_UNIQ_STR(len) and added
deprecation notice for UI_SET_PHYS
Changes in v2:
- Added compat handling for UI_SET_UNIQ
