* 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 is done such that we can disable LTO for these 2 functions when
building with MSVC.
This is due to a limitation of Link Time Code Generation (LTCG).
Code generation might generate a new reference to memset after linking
has started. The LTCG must make assumptions about where memset is
defined which is normally the C runtime.
- SDL_JoystickGUID -> SDL_GUID (though we retain a type alias)
- Operations for GUID <-> String ops are now in
src/SDL_guid.c and include/SDL_guid.h
- The corresponding Joystick operations delegate to SDL_guid.c
- Added test/testguid.c
For stable releases, this gives us the ability to make bugfix-only point
releases such as 2.24.1 if we want to, and distinguish between them
programmatically. For example, this ability could have been useful after
2.0.16 to fix Xwayland regressions, and after 2.0.18 to fix event loop
regressions.
For development releases, this gives us the ability to make multiple
prereleases during the same feature cycle, and distinguish between them
programmatically. For example, this would have been useful during 2.0.22
development, which went through three prereleases before reaching the
final release.

This prevents conflicts with hidapi linked with applications, as well as allowing applications to make use of HIDAPI on Android and other platforms that might not normally have an implementation available.
