Research the possibility of linux support.

Input handling in Linux is (from what I've gathered) quite fragmented across different Window Managers and different display servers (X11/ Wayland) and I think the best bet to support Linux is to DllImport a pre-existing native library and not roll our own solution. I've found 2 after a cursory Google search libinput and libuihook

@MindSwipe Thanks for your Input. Yeah I was also researching and came to the same conclusion. May give it a try wrapping one of them when I have more time

Hey @rexn8r,

unfortunately I'm currently not working on NeatInput. But I would be open to reviewing a pull request which adds this feature.

Kind Regards
