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.
SDL/WinRT currently uses a separate XInput backend from SDL/Win32, as WinRT
has no support for DirectInput. This change makes SDL/WinRT's XInput
code snag some recently-changed bits from the Win32-specific,
DirectInput + XInput backend, in order to get the SDL_GameController API
working again on WinRT, insofar that axes map to the correct parts.
TODO:
- test all buttons, making sure WinRT maps buttons the same way that Win32 does
- consider making the Win32 and WinRT codebases share more stuff, minus
the sort of duplication happening via this change. Maybe simulate, or
stub-out, DirectInput calls when on WinRT?

SDL's code for exposing the accelerometer as a joystick on iOS currently uses UIAccelerometer, which was superseded by the CoreMotion framework and deprecated since iOS 5.
The UIAccelerometer code still works (for now), but it also throws deprecation warnings whenever SDL is built for iOS, since SDL's deployment target is no longer below iOS 5.
I've created a patch which replaces the old UIAccelerometer code with a replacement based on the CoreMotion framework. It has identical functionality (to SDL users), however iOS apps are now required to link to the CoreMotion framework when using SDL.
This adds support for all XInput devices, exposed through the SDL joystick API.
The button and axis reporting for XInput devices has been changed to match DirectInput and other platforms.
The game controller xinput mapping has been updated so this change is seamless.
There is a new hint, SDL_HINT_XINPUT_USE_OLD_JOYSTICK_MAPPING, for any applications that have hardcoded the old xinput button and axis set. This hint will be removed in SDL 2.1.

Add a gamepad mapping entry for Bluetooth DualShock 4 controllers on Linux.
The button mapping is the same as the USB controller, but the GUID is
different.
It was simpler to just have the polling (actually: hotplug detection)
functions return immediately if it's not an appropriate time to poll.
Note that previously, if any joystick/controller was opened, we would poll
every time anyhow, skipping this function.
This allows the joystick hotplug to function without the main event loop
(specifically: without SDL_INIT_VIDEO), and moves explicit polling for
joysticks where it belongs at the low-level: in SDL_SYS_JoystickDetect().
This lets apps call SDL_JoystickUpdate() to get hotplug events and keep
SDL_NumJoysticks() correct, as expected. As SDL_PumpEvents() (and
SDL_PollEvents, etc) calls SDL_JoystickUpdate(), existing apps will function
as before.
Thanks to "raskie" on the forums for pointing this out!

The DualShock 4 has all elements listed twice: once in the top-level list of
elements, and once in an "Application Collection" element at the top-level.
Each element has a proper cookie with a unique value, so now we descend into
each element collections, but before we add an element to the device's list,
we make sure we don't already have one with that cookie, probably from
another collection or a buggy device.

Besides being a little more simple to use than the earlier IOKit HID API, and
less likely to be deprecated, it also has the added benefit of working with
the Sony DualShock 4 controller in Bluetooth mode out of the box, whereas
the previous API has a bug that makes it report bad data for the
controller.
Cleaned up several other things in this code, having gone over every line of
it. The remaining deprecated calls are also gone.
