There is now a thread that handles all HIDAPI rumble requests and a lock that guarantees that we're not reading and writing the device at the same time.
Added the functions SDL_JoystickFromPlayerIndex(), SDL_JoystickSetPlayerIndex(), SDL_GameControllerFromPlayerIndex(), and SDL_GameControllerSetPlayerIndex()

On a Dualshock 4 controller using hidapi driver, calling SDL_JoystickRumble with a duration too long (SDL_HAPTIC_INFINITY for example) causes the rumble to stop immediately.
This happens because of integer overflow on line 301 of SDL_hidapi_ps4.c
(https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/file/a3077169ad23/src/joystick/hidapi/SDL_hidapi_ps4.c#l301), which sets expiration time in the past.
It causes the HIDAPI devices to always be opened on enumeration, which causes crashes in the Windows drivers when multiple applications are reading and writing at the same time. We can revisit this after 2.0.10 release.
The Nintendo USB GameCube adapter has four controller ports. Return
the port number as 0 to 3 from SDL_JoystickGetPlayerIndex() and
SDL_JoystickGetDevicePlayerIndex().
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.
