This makes it easier for games that don't use the gamepad API to handle D-Pad navigation, and is consistent with many other non-HIDAPI mappings.
Fixes https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/8754
Added support for getting the real controller info, as well as the function SDL_GetGamepadSteamHandle() to get the Steam Input API handle, from the virtual gamepads provided by Steam.
Also added an event SDL_EVENT_GAMEPAD_STEAM_HANDLE_UPDATED which is triggered when a controller's API handle changes, e.g. the controllers were reassigned slots in the Steam UI.
This means the allocator's caller doesn't need to use SDL_OutOfMemory directly
if the allocation fails.
This applies to the usual allocators: SDL_malloc, SDL_calloc, SDL_realloc
(all of these regardless of if the app supplied a custom allocator or we're
using system malloc() or an internal copy of dlmalloc under the hood),
SDL_aligned_alloc, SDL_small_alloc, SDL_strdup, SDL_asprintf, SDL_wcsdup...
probably others. If it returns something you can pass to SDL_free, it should
work.
The caller might still need to use SDL_OutOfMemory if something that wasn't
SDL allocated the memory: operator new in C++ code, Objective-C's alloc
message, win32 GlobalAlloc, etc.
Fixes#8642.
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 gives applications and binding systems a clearer view of what the hardware is so they can make intelligent decisions about how to present things to the user.
Gamepad mappings continue to use abxy for the face buttons for simplicity and compatibility with earlier versions of SDL, however the "SDL_GAMECONTROLLER_USE_BUTTON_LABELS" hint no longer has any effect.

This ensures that we don't accidentally interpret an ID from one system as an ID in another system.
Audio device IDs are not covered here, since they have a unique numbering system.
HIDAPI joystick drivers may call HIDAPI_JoystickDisconnected() in their
UpdateDevice() function during HIDAPI_JoystickOpen(). If they do this
today, the opened joystick will end up partially initialized (no name,
path, mapping GUID, etc.) because HIDAPI_GetDeviceByIndex() will no
longer be able to find the SDL_HIDAPI_Device for the removed joystick.
Worse still, joystick->hwdata->device becomes a dangling freed pointer
the next time HIDAPI_UpdateDeviceList() is called. This leads to a UAF
when the application or SDL calls SDL_JoystickClose() on this joystick.
Fix all this by checking if the device no longer has any associated
joysticks after calling UpdateDevice() and failing the open call if so.
The sequence order of the four paddles is not obvious, with SDL and Xbox
controllers swapping the order of P2 and P3 relative to each other.
If we group them into left and right, then it becomes more obvious.

I don't know of any specific issue with this, but third party PS4 controllers have had issues with reports that are specific to Sony hardware, so this is a speculative change to prevent issues with future controllers.
If it turns out that these reports are valid and useful for third party controllers, we can back this change out.
We should always report touchpad and battery status if they are available. We just want to make sure we don't enable enhanced reports unless the application wants that behavior.
This allows the controllers to report that they have sensors and enhanced capabilities, but not actually switch into enhanced mode (breaking DirectInput) unless the application tries to use them.
In this case we know the controller has been on for a while and the Bluetooth connection LED cycle is complete.
Also fixed the timestamp being zero the first time it is checked
Also renamed most cases of SDL_GAMEPAD_TYPE_UNKNOWN to SDL_GAMEPAD_TYPE_STANDARD, and SDL_GetGamepadType() will return SDL_GAMEPAD_TYPE_UNKNOWN only if the gamepad is invalid.
Removing SDL_GAMEPAD_TYPE_VIRTUAL allows a virtual controller to emulate another gamepad type. The other controller types can be treated as generic controllers by applications without special glyph or functionality treatment.
