Add DualShock 3 HIDAPI support on Windows (#9144)

Browse Source 
This adds HIDAPI support for DualShock 3 controllers on Windows, addressing the current absence of this feature in SDL. To utilize this functionality, the official Sony driver 'sixaxis.sys' must be installed. HID offers several advantages over DirectInput, including rumble support and the ability to control the LED lights that display the controller number.
