A negative periodic magnitude doesn't exist in Windows' and MacOS' FF APIs
The periodic magnitude parameter of the SDL Haptic API is based on the Linux
FF API, so it means they are not directly compatible:
'dwMagnitude' is a 'DWORD', which is unsigned.
Fixes Bugzilla #2701.

There was a misconception that Linux's saturation and deadband parameters -
on which the corresponding SDL parameters were based - use only half of the
possible range.
Thanks, Elias!
Partially fixes Bugzilla #2686.

Some minor changes to the Mac-specific backend code:
- Fixed up some code style issues (mostly brace style inconsistencies).
- Fixed a compiler warning in SDL_cocoaevents.m.
- Removed some useless code now that the 10.7 SDK is required to build SDL.
- Removed Gestalt(gestaltSystemVersion, ...) call and switched to NSAppKitVersionNumber for version checking code. Using Gestalt with gestaltSystemVersion will give 0x1090 in Mac OS 10.10+, and the whole Gestalt function was deprecated in Mac OS 10.8.
We needed a bit, so we're hoping no one needs this effect, especially when
it's fairly close to SDL_HAPTIC_SINE, we hope.
SDL_HAPTIC_LEFTRIGHT maps to XInput's functionality, so this removes the SINE
code for the XInput driver to keep things clean.
This also makes the simplified Rumble API use SDL_HAPTIC_LEFTRIGHT if
SDL_HAPTIC_SINE isn't available, to keep XInput working.
When we break the ABI, and can extend the supported capabilities field from
a Uint16, we'll add SDL_HAPTIC_SQUARE back in.
This patch is based on work by Ethan Lee.
This lets us change things like this...
if (Failed) {
SDL_SetError("We failed");
return -1;
}
...into this...
if (Failed) {
return SDL_SetError("We failed");
}
Fixes Bugzilla #1778.

Linux uses fname, which is the name of the device path like for example
/dev/input/event3 so it shouldn't have the issue. However I can confirm that it
looks like haptic->index never gets properly set on windows. Have to look at
mac os x also. I'll see if I can fix it real quick now.
