This removes the earlier work done in libx52 to support USB hotplug.
This wasn't adequately tested, and the reason to have hotplug support
was to address perceived deficiencies in the standard API.
However, on recent reflection and experimentation, it seems to be easier
to support adding methods to connect to an X52/X52Pro joystick
dynamically after initializing the library. This approach also lends
itself to adding checks when sending control packets to close the device
handle when it detects device disconnection. Also, one could add a
disconnect method to disconnect from any connected joysticks.
Finally, this commit reverts a series of commits that chronicled my
journey into implementing hotplug support and simulating it in
libusbx52. By coalescing the revert into a single commit, it makes it
easier to revert the revert in the future, if necessary.
This change updates x52test to use the gettext APIs. This also adds a
fake message catalogue to verify that the code is converted correctly
and the translations are displayed.
The fake message catalogue translates the English strings into Pig
Latin, which makes it easy enough for a maintainer to verify that the
changes have been made correctly.
Finally, this also adds some documentation to tell the maintainer or
translator how to make the relevant changes.
- libx52_init returns the libx52_device in an output parameter and
returns a libx52_error_code
- Make all functions return libx52_error_code
- Update package version to indicate incompatible API change
