Update to bsnes v041r02? release.

New WIP.

I've added the centering code. Had to hide and show the window to
prevent the Windows 'restore-from-taskbar' animation. That's causing
Xorg events to not propagate quickly enough so sometimes the windows
start minimized. I'll keep working on it.

I've also killed joypad<>::up, down, left, right; and added
joypad<>::hat<0-3>.

So far, I've adapted the Qt UI to map analog axes. You'll see now when
you map one that you get ::lo or ::hi to indicate the state direction
at the time of assignment. I have not done this for hats, so only the
'up' direction will map currently.

I only know how to read the first two axes (first stick) on Windows,
so it won't see any others yet.

For the mapping, I made it both range-sensitive (requires at least 75%
force to map, 50% force to trigger) and distance-sensitive (prevents
auto-assignment for those annoying analog sticks that flicker within a
few points in any direction; also protects against those sixaxis
buttons that are idle at +32767) -- the distance is at 512, and slow
movement causes ~1,000+ movement based on ~20ms sampling, should be
enough.

To prevent rapid assignment of the same analog axis when using the
"Assign All ..." button, and because it makes no sense to allow it,
I've added a check to make sure that each key assignment is unique to
all previous ones. This doesn't apply to individual assignment in case
you really do want one key to map to two inputs. It was that or add a
~200ms delay between each assignment.

The only thing my emulator doesn't handle completely are those six-
axis buttons. Mostly because I have no way of telling what they are. I
can't tell if a user is holding a stick south-east, or if it's a
button not pressed. You can map them anyway, but it won't work as you
expect a button to.

Lastly, I'm not sure how to support mouse pass-through just yet. Right
now I block mouse input when the mouse isn't exclusively acquired. If
I don't, then clicking to acquire the mouse will send a 'fire' command
to the emulator. But if I do, then you can't use a mouse as a joypad.
