using the blocking sceCtrlReadBufferPositive() effectively turns SDL_PollEvent() into WaitForVblank(), because the functions does exactly that if no input is buffered.
due to this, calling SDL_PollEvent() once per frame averaged in 7 ms delay out of the available 16ms budget to get a frame calculated and drawn to achieve 60 fps.

The CRC is used to distinguish between different controllers that have the same VID/PID, so if the CRC doesn't match, it's probably a different controller that we don't know about.

This broke support for the Hori Fighting Stick EX2, which gets a good mapping if the automatic mapping is allowed to create one.
If the original controller needs a mapping, it should be added with a crc, since that VID/PID combination is used by several HORI controllers.
This adds HIDAPI support for DualShock 3 controllers on Windows, addressing the current absence of this feature in SDL. To utilize this functionality, the official Sony driver 'sixaxis.sys' must be installed. HID offers several advantages over DirectInput, including rumble support and the ability to control the LED lights that display the controller number.
On Android, HIDAPI prompts for permissions and acquires exclusive access to the device, and on Apple mobile platforms it doesn't do anything except for handling Bluetooth Steam Controllers.

Since commit 0dfdf1f3 "Fixed crash if joystick functions are passed a
NULL joystick", we've already done this check by the time we get to
this point.

Separately checking the state of a file before operating on it may allow
an attacker to modify the file between the two operations. (CWE-367)
Fix by using fstat() instead of stat().
We were accidentally skipping all of the mappings that used the SDL_GAMECONTROLLER_USE_BUTTON_LABELS hint, because they used the '!' negate operator with a default hint value of 1. Instead we just want to use that hint to determine whether the mapping has positional buttons or not, and swap the buttons as needed.

This uses the same chipset as the DragonRise Inc. Generic USB Joystick, which many manufacturers use for different products with different mappings.
In order to add a mapping for a controller using this chipset, we need a unique crc for the device name.
This refers to the HID Simple Haptics spec, which is currently only implemented by the Surface Dial accessory and WMR game controllers, which aren't currently exposed by the GameInput API.
We can add support for other effects in the future, but for now we don't need this or the SDL_gameinputjoystick_c.h header.
Joystick drivers are sorted by priority in the driver list, and higher priority drivers report whether they are handling a device when lower priority drivers want to add it to their device list.
This has been handled ad-hoc with the Windows and HIDAPI drivers, but this formalizes the idea and makes sure that GameInput has the highest priority of the Windows drivers.
