Merge pull request #235 from DCurrent/input-rework-rebased

Completely reworks the input system. The platform-specific control code for SDL and Wii has been completely rewritten. Input devices are now assigned to individual players, controller hotplugging is handled gracefully, and it is easy to reassign which player uses which device. This should fix most of the control issues people have traditionally had with OpenBOR. The days of OpenBOR treating all input devices like pieces of a giant imaginary keyboard are over! The new input subsystem works very well on Windows/Linux. I haven't been able to test controller support on Android, but these changes at least don't break the regular touch-based input system. The Wii implementation is in worse shape; it is still incomplete and buggy, and will need someone to improve it in the future.
