For SInput, the paddle order is left/right, which conflicted with the paddle order 1/Right, 2/Left.
The order has been fixed to properly apply the mapping strings generated to be 2/Left, 1/Right, 4/Left, 3/Right.
* SInput: version capabilities compression
This commit includes additions relating to SInput generic device reporting capabilities in a bit more detail, to automatically choose the best input map possible for the given device.
Thanks to Antheas Kapenekakis (git@antheas.dev) for contributing the neat compression algorithm, this is pulled from the PR Draft here: https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/pull/13565

- In previous firmwares for my gamepads, the buttons were sent in a static order for ABXY.
- To better be 'transparent' to the driver and save myself from future fragmentation, I am updating the mappings to be consistent, where the HID report should always expect to receive the button inputs based on cardinal button directions rather than button labels.
- This better aligns with the existing 'fallback' behavior of a generic device.
- Coincides with firmware library update: https://github.com/HandHeldLegend/HOJA-LIB-RP2040/pull/30
ABXY Face Style Application
- The abxy face style extraction now applies to any SInput device.
- The use-case here is that gamepads that allow for changing styles can dynamically adjust the button labels firmware-side to have the physical location better represent the actual button being pressed.
SInput Sub-Type Clarification
- The code has been updated to better reflect the intention behind the sub-type field of the GUID byte 15.
- Any SInput device may utilize the Sub-Type field to indicate variants of the same device (Same device that has rear paddles or additional physical features but is otherwise identical, etc.).
"Firebird" Company Name Clarification
- "Bonjiri" was a wrong translation. Got clarification from the company and official PID registration for the official English spelling (See https://github.com/raspberrypi/usb-pid/commit/0c5234cd92e1ba91cc80ec789aed136958bac9f8).
- Fixed this spelling for all references (official mapping strings still pending and this will return NULL until this is provided).
Code Notes
- Various notes have been updated to have more clear indications.
- I have moved the face-type and sub-type debug messages to be paired with the extraction for easier location.
- I've removed an incorrect note left-over from a previous commit regarding command response information.
- Implements 'handheld' flag to indicate whether the SInput device is a gamepad or handheld (ROG Ally etc)
- Implements generic mapping fallback along with face style setting ability
