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.
SDL 2.x recently accepted patches to enable OpenGL ES 2 support via Google's ANGLE library. The thought is to try to eventually merge SDL/WinRT's OpenGL code with SDL-official's.

As described in the other thread
(http://lists.libsdl.org/pipermail/sdl-libsdl.org/2013-November/091997.html),
I've run into a case of SDL2 not recognizing a wireless Xbox 360
controller receiver properly on Debian Linux amd64 testing.
Apparently, the generated GUID is slightly different.
Device in question:
Bus 001 Device 015: ID 045e:0291 Microsoft Corp. Xbox 360 Wireless
Receiver for Windows
