gamepad and midi support

[timo]

the official configuration tool allows you to set the footswitches to produce a midi note or press a gamepad button. i don't see a usb audio device, but i do see a gamepad when i plug mine in:

jstest /dev/input/js1
Driver version is 2.1.0.
Joystick (PCsensor FootSwitch) has 2 axes (X, Y)
and 8 buttons (BtnA, BtnB, BtnC, BtnX, BtnY, BtnZ, BtnTL, BtnTR).
Testing ... (interrupt to exit)
Axes:  0:     0  1:     0 Buttons:  0:off  1:off  2:off  3:off  4:off  5:off  6:off  7:off

so it is most likely not an issue of setting the right keycode to be pressed, there would be a different command sent to the firmware to use gamepad actions, much like mouse movement and wheel are different from keypresses
