The udev container issue is mostly to do with device notifications
and netlink. The device classification stuff just pokes file in /sys
and /run/udev. Doesn't hurt to try it first for classifying joysticks
and then fall to the guess heuristics if it fails.
This allows the most information possible for the CRC string, which is used to differentiate controllers with the same VID/PID.

(cherry picked from commit 1f1ee6f77c492e17a9691c367110c11529fab3fb)
Added support for getting the real controller info, as well as the function SDL_GameControllerGetSteamHandle() to get the Steam Input API handle, from the virtual gamepads provided by Steam.
Also added an event SDL_CONTROLLERSTEAMHANDLEUPDATED which is triggered when a controller's API handle changes, e.g. the controllers were reassigned slots in the Steam UI.

This makes sure that games launched by Steam see the first controller first, and the controllers in the game match up with the controllers in the Steam UI.

The 8BitDo Zero 2 only sends reports when state changes, so trips the disconnected Bluetooth controller detection. The expected use case is that most people will have official PS4 controllers in enhanced report mode, so disconnected Bluetooth controller detection will still work for those.

This can be used to work around issues where the Apple GCController driver doesn't work for some controllers but there's no way to know which GCController maps to which IOKit device.

This reverts commit ad0af488837e44cbea0f0eab3b2f73b50a74bff4.
It turns out the ROG PUGIO II actually enumerates as a gamepad, so this change didn't have any effect anyway. We're getting lots of reports of people's racing pedals and similar devices no longer showing up, so we'll revert this again.

This mouse actually enumerates as a gamepad with 2 axes, 8 buttons and a hat.
We'll ignore it like the other ROG mice, unless someone specifically wants to use it as a gamepad.
