[PD] wacom tablet & gemtablet

I cracked the latter one by modifying GemCreateWindowNT.cpp.

In the windowhandler-routine, look for WT_PACKET-messages, and
remove scaling to window dimensions when setting X, Y, pressure
etc. from the packet data. It's quite obvious.

This way the full resolution of the tablet is passed to Pd,
which in my case seems to be 1000x1000 and 1024 for pressure.

I'd prefer this to be an option in Gem. Johannes?

Cheers
Juha
