I added Sys_RegisterShutdown years ago and never really did anything
with it: now any system that needs to be shutdown can ensure it gets
shutdown on program exit, and in the correct order (ie, reverse to init
order).
This makes sure that some unchecked event doesn't cause a lockup.
However, blocking input is really not the way to go: need to implement a
state machine and use non-blocking event reads.
Or really, allow it if the user specifically requests it: the default is
blocked. Modern systems (particularly displays) do not really like
changing resolution, so doing so by default seems rather wrong.

This paves the way for clean initialization of the Vulkan renderer, and
very much cleans up the older renderer initialization code as gl and sw
are no longer intertwined.
This fixes the segfault and pushes things very much in the desired
direction of proper system independence for rendering and presentation
separation (though things were headed in the right direction before).
Also fix a bug where despite supporting 32 buttons, only 18 were actually
supported, and a similar issue for the number of axes.
My saitek x52 has 34 buttons and 10 axes. Whee.
Once and for all: remove the default and move the Sys_Error outside the
switch (changing appropriate breaks to returns). Now gcc will let me know
when I forget to update the switch statements.
Johnny's number->J_AXISn mapping is preserved, but I had intended for any
key to be supported (J_AXISn was just to ensure free keys were available).
This gives both methods (and some range checking on the axis button
number).
First, this completely smashes joystick input: it will not work (though it
doesn't crash). This is because there is, as of yet, no means to configure
the system.
Each joystick axis has:
- per-axis amplification (both pre and post).
- per-axis offset (offset applied after pre-amp but before post amp)
- selectable destination:
- linear delta: position and angles (as before)
- axis button: if the value crosses the threshold, the given key is
pressed or released as appropriate.
The axis amplification still uses joy_amp and joy_pre_amp (and
in_amp/in_pre_amp), but now also has the per-axis settings.
The per-axis offset is most useful for axis buttons. For example, the xbox
360 controller triggers are analong but go "all the way to negative on 0
state". Offsetting the input keeps axis button thresholds simple.
Amplification and offset is applied before anything is done with the axis
value. The formula is:
joy_amp * in_amp * axis-amp *
(offset + value * joy_pre_amp * in_pre_amp * axis-pre_amp)
Axis button thresholds are very simple: if the sign of the value is the
same as the sign of the threshold and abs(value) >= abs(threshold), the
button is pressed. While multiple thresholds and keys can be placed on an
axis, only one can be pressed at a time. The threshold furthest from 0
wins.
