conf: increase top software button area to 15%
We had reports that the top software button area is hard to hit for those using the trackpoint and clicking the buttons with their thumb. Analysis of event recordings (3 different people) for left, right and middle clicks shows that there is a significant amount of events up to about 10mm (with outliers up to 12mm) from the top of the touchpad. That maps to 15%. Interestingly, the middle button does not seem to need this, presumably the haptic feedback of the little dots sticking out from the surface make hitting the button easier. Its size is increased to 15% anyway, for simplicity and because a sample set of 3 is too small to be definitive about this.
