Wiimotes are now slighty more responsive and multiple wiimotes should harmonize now slighty better. This clean up was requested/inevitable and should have be done way more earlier. This "might" break osx/linux builds, so please test. If your aware of any "real wiimote" issues please post it in the comments as well(dont forget to state your OS).
Known wiimote issues:
1.) Possible wiimote disconnect on pressing the home button
2.) 1-2 Possible wiimote disconnects directly after starting a game
3.) Rumble causes lag. I don't think this is a wiimote plugin issue itself, I'm not sure tho. It would be interesting to know whether the lag still happens on emulated wiimotes as well, when the game tries to rumble.
4.) Connecting(pairing up and refreshing) a 2nd/3rd/4th real wiimote while having a game running/paused, might swap player slots and cause disconnects at that moment.
If u have more issues, feel free to post them, to have them all here collected once more to get a brief overview.
Apart from that, increase the wiimote read timeout @settings(20-200). If your expecting frequent disconnects, restart dolphin, and don't open the wiimote gui before playing instead directly start games.

WX doesn't reflow text terribly well, so format it manually.

Fixes a number of problems, including unreliable connection setup,
frequent disconnections, busy-waiting and shutdown deadlocks.
Motion Plus and nunchuk hot swapping now work and Wiiuse does a small
amount of queueing to prevent occasional dropped packets. The OS X
bluetooth stack has no internal input buffering and while a worker
thread can easily keep up with data coming from the Wiimote, the rest
of Dolphin can easily get behind if it is blocked by disk I/O or
similar. Mostly the Wiimote protocol recovers from dropped packets,
but sometimes the Wiimote would get out of sync and send a disconnect.
I wonder if the other platforms might benefit from a bit of queueing
at this layer as well.
Still doesn't support multiple devices, as I kept changing my mind
about how best to do it. I only have one Wiimote anyway..
One improvement to the Wiimote plugin that would be really nice would
be for the scan for new devices to operate continuously or periodically
like on a real Wii rather than just for 5 seconds at startup..

wiiusesrc: enable building with windows/msvc. In order to build you need to install WDK, then build. wiiuse.vcproj uses WDK exclusively, and ignores other include/lib paths. Change the paths in wiiuse.vcproj if your version of WDK differs.
wiiuse: update compiled windows libs
