DS4Windows can create both emulated Xbox and emulated PS4 controllers, and we don't know which the user has it doing, so don't try to second guess it, just let it do it's thing. Users should follow the remapping software recommendations on when to enable/disable it for various situations.

This makes the joystick locking more robust by holding the lock while updating joysticks.
The lock should be held when calling any SDL joystick function on a different thread than the one calling SDL_PumpEvents() and SDL_JoystickUpdate().
It is now possible to hold the lock while reinitializing the joystick subsystem, however any open joysticks will become invalid and potentially cause crashes if used afterwards.

This is in the hope that revving the product version doesn't change the mapping, which is the case for some devices. In cases where it does, we just need to provide a mapping for each version of the product.
This is now used as a crc field in the mapping rather than directly in mapping guids, for better mapping compatibility between versions of SDL.
Added SDL_GetJoystickGUIDInfo() to get device information encoded in a joystick GUID, so that mapping programs can clear the CRC from the GUID when generating mappings.
sort_controllers.py has been updated to extract the CRC from mappings created by older mapping programs and convert it into the new crc field. It will also take the CRC into account when checking for duplicate mappings.
Also regenerated the GUIDs for the PS2/PSP/Vita controller mappings, fixing https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/6151
This will make it possible to have mappings for different controllers
that have the same VID/PID. This happens frequently with some generic
controller boards that have been reused in many products.

* Added support for mini-gamepad mode for Joy-Con controllers, matching the mapping for hid-nintendo on Linux and iOS 16
* Added the ability to merge left and right Joy-Con controllers into a single Pro-style controller
* Added the hint SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_SWITCH_COMBINE_JOY_CONS to control this merging functionality
* Removed the hint SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_JOY_CONS
This allows us to handle controllers that use the Xbox protocol but look like Nintendo Switch or Playstation controllers, like the Qanba Dragon Arcade Stick in PC mode
- SDL_JoystickGUID -> SDL_GUID (though we retain a type alias)
- Operations for GUID <-> String ops are now in
src/SDL_guid.c and include/SDL_guid.h
- The corresponding Joystick operations delegate to SDL_guid.c
- Added test/testguid.c
