Pull #15597 No Longer Working in RetroArch Android 1.20.0

Is there an existing issue for this?

• This is a bug in RetroArch frontend
• I have searched the existing issues

Description

When using an S Pen stylus on my Galaxy ZFold, the app responds to the tip of the stylus being near the screen by constantly "auto-clicking" whatever buttons it's near. Makes many Nintendo DS games effectively unplayable.
Previous commit that is supposed to fix this: https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/pull/15597

Expected behavior

Using a stylus on RA Android previously would have the preview circle under the tip of the stylus, but the app would not react to it unless the tip made contact with the screen surface.

Steps to reproduce the bug

1. Open RetroArch Android 1.20.0 on a compatible device.
2. Use an S Pen or similar compatible stylus to navigate the application instead of touch controls.
3. Observe menus being clicked and dragged instead of buttons being selected by touching them with the stylus.
   3a. Open a game and notice that moving the stylus near any of the onscreen controls "auto-clicks" them when the stylus is near

Relevant log output

Start by reviewing pull request #15597 and the Android input-handling changes it introduced, then reproduce the issue on Android 15 with an S Pen or compatible stylus. Done means hover or proximity alone no longer activates menus or on-screen controls, while contact still selects and drags as expected.
