InputService: add live dispatching of pointer strokes on API >= 26

This makes use of GestureDescription.StrokeDescription.continueStroke() to
be able to dispatch parts of a logical stroke to the OS while the stroke
is continuing.

Credit is due to https://github.com/gm-vm who came up with a first working
implementation I used as a basis for this one.
