The Nintendo USB GameCube adapter has four controller ports. Return
the port number as 0 to 3 from SDL_JoystickGetPlayerIndex() and
SDL_JoystickGetDevicePlayerIndex().

Hi,
If a gamepad lists the Dpad as 4 buttons (Dpad Up,Down, Left, Right) like with the Xbox 360 gamepad / XInput report descriptor used by OpenBSD (https://github.com/openbsd/src/blob/master/sys/dev/usb/uhid_rdesc.h#L184), this is not recognized by the SDL BSD backend and no hat or any other listing for the D-pad exists, e.g. in sdl2-jstest (https://gitlab.com/sdl-jstest/sdl-jstest).
The attached diff fixes this and makes the D-pad on my Xbox 360 and Logitech F310 controllers usable. It adds a hat to nhats when usage HUG_DPAD_UP is found, reads the state of the D-pad buttons into array dpad[], and turns the value of dpad[] into an SDL hat direction (dpad_to_sdl()).
Tested and works with Xbox 360 controller and Logitech F310 in XInput mode. Software-side tested with sdl2-jstest and Owlboy where this worked without problems or regressions.
I don't know if this would be applicable to other *BSDs and don't have an install to test it with, therefore wrapped it in __OpenBSD__ ifdefs.
Thanks,
thfr
Note that a single USB device is responsible for all 4 joysticks, so a large
rewrite of the DeviceDriver functions was necessary to allow a single device to
produce multiple joysticks.

Even though my game (dhewm3) doesn't use SDL_INIT_JOYSTICK, SDL_PumpEvent() calls SDL_JoystickUpdate() which ends up calling hid_enumerate() every three seconds, and sometimes on my Win7 box hid_enumerate() takes about 5 seconds, which causes the whole game to freeze for that time.

The Dualshock 3's motion sensors don't seem to be reported by the call to EVIOCGBIT but they still send EV_ABS events. Because they're not reported by EVIOCGBIT they're not assigned a proper axis ids and the default of 0 is used, which is the valid id for the left analog sticks left/right axis.
Adds controller bindings to support the "Xbox One Wireless Controller
(Model 1708)" on Linux. The Model 1708 was released in 2016 alongside the
Xbox One S. It is the current model being sold by Microsoft as of writing.

Include guards in most changed files were missing, I added them keeping
the same style as other SDL files. In some cases I moved the include
guards around to be the first thing the header has to take advantage of
any possible improvements compiler may have for inclusion guards.
If we run into problems where these events aren't dispatched (initialized on a different thread than the main thread?) we may need to create a separate thread to handle device notifications like we do with the windows joystick subsystem.
