UsbMouseDxe was missing from the OVMF build description, so
the Simple Pointer Protocol wasn't usable from within QEMU.

Here's an example of somone getting tripped up by this:
https://forum.osdev.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=31572.

I worked around this by including the below patch in my local
builds, and was encouraged by Heinrich Schuchardt to submit a patch.

I have not contributed to this project before, so please accept
my apologies if I've formatted anything incorrect. All the best.

Thank you Phillip for contributing.

I guess it is just a problem with the line endings.

Please, run 'python3 BaseTools/Scripts/SetupGit.py' once. This will set up your git repository with the Tianocore defaults for submitting patches.

It would be preferable to match the existing indentation.

Maybe make both insertions at the same place under UsbKbDxe.inf.

Otherwise looks good to me and works fine: The USB mouse is usable in your IRC application.

The file 'Maintainers' has a list of the persons that should be CCed for OvmfPkg patches.

Best regards

Heinrich
