The original approach was the scanner_constants structure. As the
backend should support more than one scanner I added the more complete
Genesys_model structure. That structure is based on the gt68xx code.
So the idea is to move all scanner-dependent constants to
Genesys_model. Also these constants should be in a usable unit/format,
e.g. mm for the borders and not "points at some resolution". As I
haven't understand all the values of scanner_constants yet I haven't
moved them. The idea was to get it scanning first and then clean up
the code.
