quirks: Fix MacBookPro11,2 touchpad overly-aggressive PalmSizeThreshold

Thomas Profitt requested to merge thomas-profitt/libinput:master into master

The touchpad is 104mmx75mm, but an AttrPalmSizeThreshold of 800 is too aggressive, and even relatively-small fingers and thumbs register as palms sporadically, stopping the mouse until you lift your hand and try again.

1600 was chosen because it's the point at which my fingers and thumbs, held at a very low angle, stop registering as palms, so it should acommodate bigger fingers.

I don't know if the [Apple Touchpads USB] default of 800 needs to be updated too, or if it's a quirk of this particular touchpad.
