Restructure mtdev api
Split the api into plumbing and porcelain layers and move the plumbing part to its own optional header file. The main usecase is to fetch events from the device, route them through the converter and extract the processed events. To simplify the API, replace the intermediate mtdev_pull() function by the higher-level mtdev_get(). This function does all the required steps, and has the same semantics as read().
