This change add APIs to convert the string forms of the axis and button names back to their corresponding enum identifiers. This is effectively built such that a roundtrip of _to_str and _from_str will return the same input. The _nocase variants handle case insensitive matching of the names by folding of the ASCII alphabets A-Z and a-z only, so it doesn't depend on localization. |

Notes for translators
libx52 is slowly being migrated to use the GNU gettext library to support
internationalization (i18n). Contributions are welcome to both update the
existing code to use gettext, and to add new translations.
xx_PL
xx_PL is a translation of English strings into Pig Latin that is used in lieu of any real translations. This file is used to test that the translation functionality is working as expected.
Adding new code to i18n (maintainers)
Most code should be using the _("...") format to refer to a translatable
string. Some strings can be left untranslated, but these are mostly just
whitespace, such as line breaks.
Once you add new strings to be translated, update po/POTFILES.in to include
any new files that have to be translated. The file path is relative to the root
of the project.
The next step is to rebuild the translation template libx52.pot. To do
this, run make -C po update-po from your build directory (where you ran
configure). This also updates any translation files (with .po extension) to
include the new source strings.
Adding new languages (translators)
Run msginit -l <language-code> libx52.pot to generate a new .po file
for that language. Language code is a 2 letter
ISO-639-1 code with an
optional ISO-3166-1 region
suffix. Edit this file to add your translation, and add the new language to
po/LINGUAS.
po/LINGUAS must be in alphabetical order.
