The Game Controller Kit doesn't show the controllers at startup, so the HIDAPI driver sees them first and therefore gets preference when a controller is supported by both drivers.
This fixes bug https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/4209
To enter Bluetooth pairing mode hold B and Action (button with circle) buttons for 3 seconds.
It works via usual HIDAPI if special filter driver is not installed:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=GZCT4CTFHXLHEB9T
With that driver installed it mimics Xbox One controller and works via XInput under Windows.
Under DInput this controller is not usable at all.
When Xbox One/Series Controllers are connected via USB on Windows they all are using `XBOXGIP` driver and produce a special ProductID `0x02FF` (GIP software PID) for any connected controller.
On the other hand `Xbox 360 Wireless Controller Reciever` (PID 0x0719) is using `XUSB` driver and produces special ProductID `0x02A1` (XUSB software PID) for each connected Xbox 360 Wireless Controller.
Also fixed Xbox One Series X Controller comment.
I have a buggy system which reports a udev "change" event for an empty
USB-C port every 0.14 seconds, which causes annoying frame hitches
because SDL decides that means it needs to do a libusb hid_enumerate,
which is slow (~25ms!) because of the get_usb_string() calls in there.
We only need to re-enumerate if we've seen a device added or removed, so
let's filter out the change event first.

In the extremely unlikely event that inotify is not available (and,
therefore, HAVE_INOTIFY is not #defined), SDL will no-longer build.
This is because <unistd.h> is only included when HAVE_INOTIFY is
defined, and PR #4098 adds a call to access(…, F_OK), which requires
<unistd.h>.
(Note that the F_OK symbol is the only one which actually prevented
SDL from compiling, but both access() and close() fell back to implicit
definitions, which is a bit concerning.)
Fixes: 8d43f45a7b ("Don't use udev for joystick enumeration if running in a container")
If we are running in a container, like Flatpak[1] or pressure-vessel[2],
it's likely that we are using user namespaces,
therefore udev event notification via netlink won't work reliably.
Use their filesystem API to detect them and automatically fallback to
the inotify-based enumeration.

This improves SDL's ability to detect HIDAPI joystick hotplug in a
container environment because we cannot reliably receive events from
udev in a container.
For a more detailed explanation of why this issue happens with
containers, please check the previous commit
"joystick: Use inotify to detect joystick unplug if not using udev"
(b0eba1c5).

As already explained in the previous commit "joystick: Allow libudev to
be disabled at runtime" (13e7d1a9), libudev can fail in a container.
To make it easier to experiment with, we add a new environment variable
"SDL_HIDAPI_JOYSTICK_DISABLE_UDEV" that disables udev and let it
fallback to the device enumeration using polling.

This fixes problems with controllers not being re-detected when a computer goes to sleep and a controller is removed and plugged back in while it's asleep.
There were two different implementations of IsBluetoothXboxOneController(), one
in SDL_hidapi_xbox360.c and one in SDL_hidapi_xboxone.c. The latter had been
updated to include USB_PRODUCT_XBOX_ONE_SERIES_X_BLUETOOTH while the former had
not.
This mismatch led to the Xbox Series X failing on macOS only. We have special
code for handling the 360Controller driver for macOS which requires us to use
the Xbox 360 driver for wired Xbox One controllers, and the SDL_hidapi_xbox360
version of IsBluetoothXboxOneController() was used to determine which devices
were wired.
In addition to adding the missing USB_PRODUCT_XBOX_ONE_SERIES_X_BLUETOOTH, this
change moves IsBluetoothXboxOneController() into a single shared function which
will ensure this bug won't happen again.

New hint to let the user opt out of having Switch controllers' Home button lit when opened.
This is more consistent with the Switch itself (which doesn't light the button normally) and may be preferred by users who may disconnect their controller without letting the application close it.
I think this warrants a Switch-specific hint because the default behaviour is unusual (inconsistent with using a Switch controller on a Switch itself or with some other programs on PC), and because of that it's distinct from other lights (the player number on Switch controllers and the player colour on PlayStation controllers).
Existing SDL applications may not know about the need to set a specific
hint to enable rumble on PS5 controllers, even though they may already
set the equivalent SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_PS4_RUMBLE hint for PS4
controller rumble support.
Rather than requiring those developers update their apps, let's use the
SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_PS4_RUMBLE value as an indication of the behavior
they are expected for all PlayStation controllers.
