Provious code wrongly assumed that direction is not an important part
of conditional effect. Moreover, if there's need to hardcode polar
direction, the default should be 0x4000 (north).
For one axis affects, a direction of 0 means complete lack of force, if
a FFB-enabled device takes direction into force calculation. A sine function
graph can be used to represent the resulting forces where X is the input
direction and Y is the force multiplier (360 degrees equals to 1).
This fixes conditional effect playback on Moza Racing devices, which do
not ignore direction field.
This makes any reference to them in the docs link to their wiki pages.
Also fixup the integer type documentation, so the SDL2 wiki _has_ actual
pages for them. :)
GCC 15 development branch provides an experimental support for Windows on ARM64, which will be officially released next year, according to latest news.
I tried to compile SDL2 with this new compiler but I got a tiny problem into SDL_assert.h because it couldn't find the right platform.
However, it has been easy to fix and I included it into this PR.

HIDAPI's source code licensing says this:
```
HIDAPI can be used under one of three licenses.
1. The GNU General Public License, version 3.0, in LICENSE-gpl3.txt
2. A BSD-Style License, in LICENSE-bsd.txt.
3. The more liberal original HIDAPI license. LICENSE-orig.txt
The license chosen is at the discretion of the user of HIDAPI. For example:
1. An author of GPL software would likely use HIDAPI under the terms of the
GPL.
2. An author of commercial closed-source software would likely use HIDAPI
under the terms of the BSD-style license or the original HIDAPI license.
```
Since the original license in LICENSE-orig.txt is basically only clause 3 of
the zlib license (do not remove this notice from the source code), it makes
sense to switch to it, since it adds no new requirements to the user.
(Plus, it's extremely short and direct, which is always nice.)
The entire license:
```
HIDAPI - Multi-Platform library for
communication with HID devices.
Copyright 2009, Alan Ott, Signal 11 Software.
All Rights Reserved.
This software may be used by anyone for any reason so
long as the copyright notice in the source files
remains intact.
