DragonRuby Game Toolkit is popping up its "please configure this unrecognized joystick" screen on some Android phones, which is does when it sees a joystick without a game controller configuration...

"uinput-fpc" appears to be the fingerprint sensor in the new Google Pixel phones. Apparently it reports itself (incorrectly) as a joystick at the HID level.

libgdx had the same problem:

libgdx/gdx-controllers#9

We might need to filter for this name (SDL_JoystickName() reports "uinput-fpc") or perhaps vendor/device ID so the joystick subsystem ignores it.

(I don't know the vendor/product ID for the device, I just have the screenshot someone sent me.)

Gonna toss this into the 2.0.18 milestone in case we can get a fast fix on this. It can bump to 2.0.20 if not.
