Fixes api availability compiler warnings when building the joystick subsystem for macOS versions older than 11.0. The compiler expects the version number passed into @available and API_AVAILABLE macros to be greater than or equal to 11.0, which 10.16 is not. (Even though 10.16 and 11.0 are semantically equivalent, the compiler doesn't know this.)
* SInput: version capabilities compression
This commit includes additions relating to SInput generic device reporting capabilities in a bit more detail, to automatically choose the best input map possible for the given device.
Thanks to Antheas Kapenekakis (git@antheas.dev) for contributing the neat compression algorithm, this is pulled from the PR Draft here: https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/pull/13565

(buttons above 12 all shifted down by four, since the dpad buttons now look
like a hat...the only one above the dpad buttons on a standard layout is the
guide button, index 16. This change moves it to 12.)
The dongle appears to stop sending input reports with some combination of rumble patterns, easily reproduced with Forza Horizon 5. We'll disable rumble temporarily until @8BitDo can investigate.
- In previous firmwares for my gamepads, the buttons were sent in a static order for ABXY.
- To better be 'transparent' to the driver and save myself from future fragmentation, I am updating the mappings to be consistent, where the HID report should always expect to receive the button inputs based on cardinal button directions rather than button labels.
- This better aligns with the existing 'fallback' behavior of a generic device.
- Coincides with firmware library update: https://github.com/HandHeldLegend/HOJA-LIB-RP2040/pull/30
ABXY Face Style Application
- The abxy face style extraction now applies to any SInput device.
- The use-case here is that gamepads that allow for changing styles can dynamically adjust the button labels firmware-side to have the physical location better represent the actual button being pressed.
SInput Sub-Type Clarification
- The code has been updated to better reflect the intention behind the sub-type field of the GUID byte 15.
- Any SInput device may utilize the Sub-Type field to indicate variants of the same device (Same device that has rear paddles or additional physical features but is otherwise identical, etc.).
"Firebird" Company Name Clarification
- "Bonjiri" was a wrong translation. Got clarification from the company and official PID registration for the official English spelling (See 0c5234cd92).
- Fixed this spelling for all references (official mapping strings still pending and this will return NULL until this is provided).
Code Notes
- Various notes have been updated to have more clear indications.
- I have moved the face-type and sub-type debug messages to be paired with the extraction for easier location.
- I've removed an incorrect note left-over from a previous commit regarding command response information.
