Re: [pointerevents] Add informative note about tangential pressure and Windows

Comment from Matt Rakow (Microsoft) on mailing list http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-pointer-events/2018JulSep/0029.html

> Since the spec already defines behavior in the case that tangential pressure is not supported, and (I think) no one is signing up to do comprehensive testing across various OS's and versions to drop those details in the note, I'm not sure the note is helpful.  At minimum you'll need to indicate the version of Windows you're referring to and keep it updated over time if support is added later.

Actually, agree with Matt's alternative take here. I'll see if this can be worded a bit more "evergreen" without also requiring testing/calling out platforms.
