Add support for the detachable keyboard cover on the Surface Pro 8. The keyboard cover on the Surface Pro 8 is, unlike the keyboard covers of earlier Surface Pro generations, handled via the Surface System Aggregator Module (SSAM). The keyboard and touchpad (as well as other HID input devices) of this cover are standard SSAM HID client devices (just like keyboard and touchpad on e.g. the Surface Laptop 3 and 4), however, some care needs to be taken as they can be physically detached (similarly to the Surface Book 3). Specifically, the respective SSAM client devices need to be removed when the keyboard cover has been detached and (re-)initialized when the keyboard cover has been (re-)attached. On the Surface Pro 8, detachment of the keyboard cover (and by extension its devices) is managed via the KIP subsystem. Therefore, said devices need to be registered under the KIP device hub, which in turn will remove and re-create/re-initialize those devices as needed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
