protocol: add axis_source.wheel_tilt

Unlike a wheel rotation, a wheel tilt is a discrete-only axis. Wheel rotations
are mapped to degrees in libinput but that that does not apply to wheel tilt
axes where there is no physical equivalent.

finger. One example for this source is button-based scrolling where
the vertical motion of a device is converted to scroll events while
a button is held down.
The "wheel tilt" axis source indicates that the actual device is a
wheel but the scroll event is not caused by a rotation but a
(usually sideways) tilt of the wheel.
