Provides a simple implementation of a Mouse, designed for simple
thread-safe feeding to a machine that accepts quadrature-encoded input.
TEMPORARY SIMPLIFICATION: it is assumed that the caller will be interested
in observing a signal that dictates velocity, sampling the other to
obtain direction only on transitions in the velocity signal.
Or, more concretely, of the two channels per axis, one is accurate only when
the other transitions. Hence the discussion of 'primary' and 'secondary'
channels below. This is intended to be fixed.
