Rock Boshers DX: Directors Cut changes

- Updated SDL to v3 ( fixes black screen when running game on desktop and steam deck )
- Updated Steam API to v1.62
- Updated mapping for xbox 360 controller ( see below, only real change is
handling of dpad in SDL v3 )
- Updated mapping for PS3 controller ( see below )
- Updated mapping for PS4 controller ( see below )
- Added support for removing and adding controllers whilst game running (
previously would need controller attached before starting game, note this
still doesn't handle multiple controllers )
- Fix for handling desktop scaling ( previously assumed x1 scale )
- Fix for issue where screen may swap without having drawn new frame ( this
would appear as flickering, as one buffer holds previous frame and the other
the current frame, bug in original release only noticeable on modern faster machines )
- Fix for pausing music when no music playing ( when backgrounding the game
window on the initial selection screen, the game would crash attempting to
pause music, but no music was playing )
- Fix for pausing music and game when opening steam overlay ( game and music
immediately resume once overlay is closed )
