I should add that this also enables support for xbox360-compatible
fight sticks, and that the changes allow the 8Bitdo SN30 Pro to work
flawlessly, in xinput mode.  I imagine that other such controllers
might now work as well.  The deadband control was added because the
xbox360 controller is overly sensitive, spamming messages for all axes
any time anything moves; with a 5-10% deadband, it's perfect.

Thanks!
