Some newer Intel Skylake based Dell laptops with Win8 precision touchpad
fail when initial feature reports are fetched from it. Below is an example
output with some additional debug included:

We manage to fetch few reports but then the touchpad dies:

 i2c_designware i2c_designware.1: i2c_dw_handle_tx_abort: lost arbitration
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: failed to retrieve report from device.

it eventually pulls the whole I2C bus low:

 i2c_designware i2c_designware.1: controller timed out
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: failed to set a report to device.

Fix this by preventing initial feature report retrieval for Win8 devices.
Instead we fetch reports as needed in mt_feature_mapping(). This prevents
fetching reports which might cause problems with the device in question.

Added check for MT_CLS_WIN_8 so that the fix is only done for real Win8
devices.

I think we are good now. I would just like to have Seth or Andrew giving 
a tested-by for Windows precision touchpads that can be found on the Dell
laptops.

If the buttonpad property is set correctly, this is:

This is working fine on my XPS 13 9343.
