Documentation/discovery old/unclear for built in handwriting with stylus

Project Member Reported by leberly@chromium.org, Sep 17

Issue description

Google Chrome	70.0.3538.16 (Official Build) dev (64-bit)
Firmware Version	Google_Caroline.7820.384.0

I recently got a Caroline with built in stylus and found the entire experience around handwriting input to be confusing:

- Stylus tools on the shelf don't include handwriting 
- Settings > Stylus tools don't mention handwriting
- Doing a search of Settings for "handwriting" returns nothing
- Documentation says I need to download a specific app even though it's actually built into Input Tools on Chrome OS https://support.google.com/faqs/faq/6188721?hl=en#
- Need workaround to get Input Tools to appear on the shelf - check more than one input type
- Icon on on-screen keyboard for handwriting is confusing, appears to be a drawing tool since it is just a squiggle 

After all of that, it's a great feature that works pretty well! It even recognizes my cursive!
