mouse: Switch to new peripherals settings schema
Most peripherals settings have been moved to
gsettings-desktop-schemas.

There are some semantic differences:

* pointer and touchpad speed is now a single value in the [-1..1]
  range (from "unaccelerated" to "fast"). A value of 0 is the default;

* touchpad enabled is now an enum which can be enabled, disabled or
  disabled-on-external-mouse. This patch keeps the same UI so the last
  value is the same as disabled in the UI and can't be set for now;

* disable while typing is now always enabled so the checkbox has been
  removed;

* horizontal scrolling is always enabled when two finger scroll is
  disabled. It wasn't in the UI but we no longer need to set it since
  it doesn't exist anymore.

** Description changed:

- Peripheral settings were moved into gsetings-desktop-schemas for 3.16.
+ Most Peripheral settings were moved into gsetings-desktop-schemas for

  The migration code in g-s-d 3.16 makes it not possible to just revert

+ Upstream removed handling of keyboard repeat settings from g-s-d,
