Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

Just added the device type to where we handle a mouse.

Validation Steps Performed

@cinnamon-msft: I dragged the stylus over text inside the Terminal and it selected cell-by-cell

Works great!

Do we want to make it so that pen input always selects, or do we want to check whether the user is holding down the pen selection button?
I wonder if we need to think more about how this should work.

Pen doing always-selection and acting just like a mouse is how the conhost did it. I think it's a reasonable change to make until proven otherwise.

I think that would fall under #1553 (Pointer Bindings). That way, users can decide how they want the stylus to operate vs touching the screen vs using the mouse.
