nirenjan abb366d89c Allow udev rules to be configured at build time [#25]
Prior to this change, the udev rules were fixed to allow read-write
access only to the `plugdev` group. However, while this is the default
group for USB input devices on Debian and its derivatives, this is not
true for some systems such as openSUSE, which use `input` as the group.

This change adds a `--with-input-group` argument to `configure`, which
defaults to `plugdev`. This change also updates the install
documentation to reflect the new options.

Saitek X52Pro joystick driver for Linux

Build/Test Kernel Module CodeQL Join the chat at https://gitter.im/x52pro-linux/community

This project adds a new driver for the Saitek/MadCatz X52 Pro flight control system. The X52 pro is a HOTAS (hand on throttle and stick) with 7 axes, 39 buttons, 1 hat and 1 thumbstick and a multi-function display which is programmable.

Currently, only Windows drivers are available from Saitek PLC, which led me to develop a new Linux driver which can program the MFD and the individual LEDs on the joystick. The standard usbhid driver is capable of reading the joystick, but it cannot control the MFD or LEDs.

Most of the extra functionality can be handled from userspace. See the individual folders for README information.
