This is a fix that makes the UI on Android when using
nui-libgdx
a bit more responsive. I found that with my previous implementation of the touch removal logic some button release events were not being processed. This was due to the pointer being removed before the button had registered the mouse release event, so the pointer was no longer being registered as hovering over the button.The new logic makes the system more configurable by employing a "stickiness" value, which is the number of updates to retain the touch pointer for at it's former position after the touch has been released. A lower stickiness makes the UI more responsive but risks missing input events. A higher stickiness means that the UI will register mouse hover events for longer after the touch has been released.
