652546a4fb [input] Clean out a lot of obsolete stuff from keys
The new binding system makes much of keys.[ch] obsolete leaving only the
key name translations.

3f299155a3 [client] Reimplement legacy bind and unbind commands
This allows id1/qw config files, and to a certain extent scripts, to
work with the new binding system. It does highlight just how limited the
original system was (many keys could not bound).

Mouse axis input does not work yet as that needs a little more work to
support +strafe and +mlook.

b1d388563e [input] Don't specify ld flags for evdev lib
libtool gets confused if the convenience library has normal library
linker flags and fails to properly relink the main library when
installing.

4898a44263 [console] Hook up new input system
This has smashed the keydest handling for many things, and bindings, but
seems to be a good start with the new input system: the console in
qw-client-x11 is usable (keyboard-only).

The button and axis values have been removed from the knum_t enum as
mouse events are separate from key events, and other button and axis
inputs will be handled separately.

keys.c has been disabled in the build as it is obsolute (thus much of
the breakage).

825d8b7a49 [input] Make a start on the new binding system
Input Mapping Tables are still at the core as they are a good concept,
however they include both axis and button mappings, and the size is not
hard-coded, but dependent on the known devices. Not much actually works
yet (nq segfaults when a key is pressed).

36f6dcc65e [input] Add logical axes
Like logical buttons, logical axes are engine-defined destinations to
which input ("physical") axes can be bound.

fed8f66824 [input] Rework logical buttons
kbutton_t is now in_button_t and has been moved to input.h. Also, a
button registration function has been added to take care of +button and
-button command creation and, eventually, direct binding of "physical"
buttons to logical buttons. "Physical" buttons are those coming in from
the OS (keyboard, mouse, joystick...), logical buttons are what the code
looks at for button state.

Additionally, the button edge detection code has been cleaned up such
that it no longer uses magic numbers, and the conversion to a float is
cleaner. Interestingly, I found that the handling is extremely
frame-rate dependent (eg, +forward will accelerate the player to full
speed much faster at 72fps than it does at 20fps). This may be a factor
in why gamers are frame rate obsessed: other games doing the same thing
would certainly feel different under varying frame rates.

a91dac60d9 [input] Start work on improved input system
The common input code (input outer loop and event handling) has been
moved into libQFinput, and modified to have the concept of input drivers
that are registered by the appropriate system-level code (x11, win,
etc).

As well, my evdev input library code (with hotplug support) has been
added, but is not yet fully functional. However, the idea is that it
will be available on all systems that support evdev (Linux, and from
what I've read, FreeBSD).

e81d690b51 [input] Create QF input library using keys.c
This refactors (as such) keys.c so that it no longer depends on console
or gib, and pulls keys out of video targets. The eventual plan is to
move all high-level general input handling into libQFinput, and probably
low-level (eg, /dev/input handling for joysticks etc on Linux).

Fixes #8
