Nintendo Switch controllers will automatically turn off Bluetooth when connected over USB, but this takes care of that a little more quickly.
PS4 and PS5 controllers will happily send reports over both Bluetooth and USB, so we'll prefer USB if connected and switch back to Bluetooth if USB is disconnected.
This prevents a number of issues where devices are enumerated but not actually able to be opened, like https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/5781.
We currently leave the devices open, allowing us to more easily do controller feature detection, protocol negotiation, detect dropped Bluetooth connections, etc. with the expectation that the application is likely to open the controllers shortly.
These report their VID/PID as a Nintendo Switch Pro controller, but they are actually left/right Joy-Cons. We'll fix up the joystick GUID so applications can handle them appropriately.
This controller actually comes in at least two flavors: a GameCube controller and an arcade pad, neither of which should have the face buttons remapped.
The Nintendo Online Sega Genesis controller reports the SNES VID/PID over Bluetooth. This is a more robust way of handling future controllers as well, so let's go with this instead.
Also use full reports over Bluetooth, and don't report gyro for Nintendo Online classic controllers.
* Added support for mini-gamepad mode for Joy-Con controllers, matching the mapping for hid-nintendo on Linux and iOS 16
* Added the ability to merge left and right Joy-Con controllers into a single Pro-style controller
* Added the hint SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_SWITCH_COMBINE_JOY_CONS to control this merging functionality
* Removed the hint SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_JOY_CONS
This allows setting the brightness of the home LED on Nintendo Switch Pro controllers, in the range 0.0 - 1.0.
This can be updated at runtime by setting the hint dynamically.

* Read IMU scale data from Switch controllers. Up until now, SDL has used hard-coded scaling which isn't correct with some supported controllers.
* Moved declarations to beginning of code blocks to better fit with SDL style requirements
Since accessing Bluetooth prompts the user for permission on both Android and iOS, and we only need it for Steam Controller support, we'll leave it off by default. You can enable it by setting the hint SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_STEAM to "1" before calling SDL_Init()
