SDL_events_need_periodic_poll() and SDL_events_need_polling() are intended to allow the event loop to update joysticks and/or sensors if needed, however those systems only update when the SDL_update_joysticks and/or SDL_update_sensors variables are true. This change brings the behavior of these functions in line with if work will actually need to be performed. This change allows the hints for AUTO_UPDATE to influence the polling behavior of the event loop such that an app can choose to update joysticks/sensors itself and avoid the expense of constantly sleeping and waking the event loop. Additionally in makes these functions marginally faster in some situations by not searching the active events.
