Subject: [PATCH] [Qt/Input] Improve pad_settings_dialog a bit (#3611)

* Input: further work on remapping Xinput and begin work on remapping DS4

* Input: Improve pad_settings_dialog a bit and begin Remapping for XInput

* Input: begin evdev remapping and change all handlers to use cfg::string

* Input: finish work on remapping evdev

and some more crap

* Input: finish work on remapping Xinput and DS4

* Input: add DS4 Colors to DS4 config

* Input: Improve DS4 deadzone scaling

Jarves made some mistakes, so I'll fix them in the follow up commit

* Input: fix Jarves fixes on DS4 deadzone

and remove unnecessary usage of toUtf8

* Input: add primitive batterychecks to XInput and DS4

* Input: add mmjoystick remapping

* Input: Fix evdev and some Vibration issues

* Input: adjust capabilities to fix stick input for games like LoS 2

also fix threshold slider minimum
also add ps button to all the handlers

* Input: Further evdev work

based on danilaml code review and own debugging:
Fixed path issue, <= 0 issue, some captures, const, axis with same codes.
Adds a map to each device that differentiates negative and positive axis mappings.
adjusted rest of the file to tabs (ListDevices and beginning of threadProc)

* Input: use 20ms vibration update time for xbox one elite controllers.

* Input: Fix return type of Clamp()

* Input: Evdev Fix

* Input: Evdev Optional GetNextButtonPress

presumably better than the other

* Input: review changes

* Input: evdev: fix wrong index in axis handling

move bindpadtodevice down to keep consistency between handlers and not get crazy

* Input: evdev: fix expensive add_device in GetNextButtonPress

* cleanup

* Input: mmjoy: fix type

* Input: evdev: final fixes

* Input: evdev: exclude unnecessary buttons while mapping Xbox 360 or DS4

* Input: add deadzone preview by passing necessary values in callback

use 0.5 of max value for threshold in pad dialog

* Input: get rid of all-uppercase variables
