Patch for BJoystick, i have tested it with different applications and can
use a joystick normally in these apps. This BJoystick patch does not yet
parse joystick configuration files etc, not sure this is even needed
anymore because most people will use usb. But this could be completed as
most of the work has been done already by various people in
JoystickTweaker if backward compatibility is critical.
Also a patch for the usb_joy driver, it works with this BJoystick. There
was a problem with the usb_joy driver causing a crash, this has been
fixed. The bug was to do with realloc in driver.c. Now whether you want
to enable the usb_joy driver for haiku is another matter. But at least
for now people can use some of the supported gamepads etc that usb_joy
supports.
