📄 Description

two changes to the uhid PS5 joypad that came up while getting a few games working through moonshine:

PS5 joypads could only be created as Bluetooth devices. there's now an optional connection type (Bluetooth or USB) in the C++, C and Rust APIs, with Bluetooth staying the default. Bluetooth DualSense input got mangled under Proton for the Dying Light DualSense mod, in my case. presenting the pad over USB avoids it
UHID_SET_REPORT requests were never answered, so the kernel blocked each one until it timed out (~5s) and failed it. some DualSense clients (Outlast Trials, in my case) refuse the controller when these writes fail. feature reports are now acknowledged

tested with moonshine: Dying Light and Outlast Trials both work now. (used LLMs to help debug this)
