a5f72befe2 stop using long deprecated xf86BlockSIGIO() and xf86UnblockSIGIO()
These functions have been replaced by input_lock() and input_unlock()
about a decade ago and only exisiting as inlined wrappers.

v2: increase required server version to 1.18.99.2

No need to support almost 1.5 decades old and unmaintained Xserver version,
almost one decade is more than enough ;-)

8f9342484a config: warning in default xorg.conf.d snippet: do not enable by default
see discussion: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=403003

distributions should not ship the module enabled by default, because a lot
of users have the joystick module installed without knowing, resulting in
confusion and bad user experience when trying to play games, the more
likely usecase when plugging in a joystick.

the default configuration only fits for a limited number of users.

it does not make much sense to automatically enable hotplugging of the
module without explicit user consent and reviewing of the configuration.

819ba33c9d jast_axis: tune accelerated axis transformation to better work with circular axis fields
reference: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42399

joysticks with a rectangular field have a
corner position of (32768,32768), joysticks with a
circular field have (23170,23170).

make sure that diagonal movement feels fast. either:
1) linear

  f(32768) ~= f(23170) + f(23170)
  f(32768) ~= a * f(23170)
         a  = 2.0

  on circular joysticks, the time needed for xy movement is
  exactly the time needed for x + the time for y separately.
  absolute diagonal travel speed (in cm/s) is 0.707 times as fast,
  which feels pretty slow.

  on square joysticks, diagonal travel speed is always 1.41 times
  faster than orthogonal travel speed. time needed for diagonal
  movement is always 0.5 times as long as for orthogonal movement.

  the value of a = 2.0 results in a nice, non-linear acceleration.

or
2) trigonometric

  f(32768) ~= sqrt(f(23170)^2 + f(23170)^2))
  f(32768) ~= a * f(23170)
  a = 1.414

on circular joysticks, the absolute pointer travel speed
(in cm/s) is now the same for both linear and diagonal movement,
which feels natural. moving diagonally takes 0.707 times the time
of moving orthogonally.

on square joysticks, values are as in 1)

the value of a = 1.414 results in linear acceleration, which feels
too slow.

to maintain non-linear acceleration, make sure that:

a >>= 1.414

the following formula achieves results inbetween,
so it should feel natural on both devices while maintaining a
nice acceleration:

f(32768) ~= 1.620 * f(23170)

342057bf38 backend_evdev: fix scaling overflow for high resolution axes
The module scales all axis values from the kernel to the range of
-32768 .. 32768, for compatibility with the old joystick kernel module.

The current implementation had an integer overflow, if the axis had a high
resolution of > 16384, like the popular XBox 360 controller.

This commitmakes the scaling use float instead to fix erratic behaviour
on high resolution joysticks. The joystick backend was not affected.

053405f711 Replace deprecated Automake INCLUDES variable with AM_CPPFLAGS
Excerpt https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2012-12/msg00038.html

  - Support for the long-deprecated INCLUDES variable will be removed
    altogether in Automake 1.14.  The AM_CPPFLAGS variable should be
    used instead.

This variable was deprecated in Automake releases prior to 1.10, which is the
current minimum level required to build X.

b217fabdef Copy pInfo->driver to option list to fix hotplugging of keyboard device
udev does copy the Driver line to the list of options, but when manually
specifying the driver in xorg.conf, the option "Driver" is unset. Because we
do hotplug a sub-device from within the core device, we need the "Driver"
option to be present in the list.

Buttons are labeled "Button %d", starting with 0 and representing the button in X _after_ mapping.
Mapping can be changed while running so the labels will be constant.

Axes are labeled "Axis %d", starting with 1, representing the _physical_ axis that reports the valuator
data. The raw valuators can't be dynamically mapped, the first two valuators always are labeled "Rel X"
and "Rel Y", representing the aggregated post-calculation data from all axes.
