We'll default this off for now, since we don't detect whether the controller is running firmware v1.03 and don't have a fallback for controllers running firmware v1.02 (the out-of-box firmware)
These changes enable the Logitech G29 wheel to run on hidapi with both SDL_Joystick and SDL_Haptic interfaces.
While it is already possible to use the wheel on Linux in WINE + SDL2 thanks to the in-tree evdev driver as well as new-lg4ff, these set of changes allow the G29 to be used with WINE under MacOS and FreeBSD
These wheels should also be supported, but I can only test them from G29's compat modes: G27, G25, DFGT, DFP, DFEX
Haptic and led support are ported from https://github.com/berarma/new-lg4ff
It looks like both macOS (15.1.1) and SDL are trying to talk to the controller at the same time, which can cause interleaved replies or even locking up the controller. Waiting a bit before talking to the controller seems to take care of this.
This can happen on Windows when the controller is turned off directly. It still shows up in the device list and you can send packets to it, but it's off and doesn't respond. We'll mark this device as broken and open the other as a single Joy-Con.
The LED hint was getting registered for SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_ENHANCED_REPORTS
instead of SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_PS5_PLAYER_LED, which results in a
use-after-free followed by a crash.
This hint defaults on, enabling advanced controller features.
This replaces SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_PS4_RUMBLE and SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_PS5_RUMBLE, and is supported by PlayStation and Nintendo Switch controllers.

* Only handle the controller interfaces on a Steam Controller and wireless dongle
* Wait until we get the connected status when initializing a wireless dongle
It now handles both wired and wireless controllers and Steam will set SDL_HINT_GAMECONTROLLER_IGNORE_DEVICES for Steam Controllers if it's handling them.
We might be waiting a long time for a permissions dialog, so let that complete asynchronously. While that's happening, we'll remove the device from the device list so that when we get permission the application sees the device as newly available and can open it again.
