Commit Message

Event Device Support (`evdev`) (#1943)

* Add event device plugin

This implements an "event device" listener plugin,
that enables the user to configure the phoniebox to
respond to events from an "event device" (device under /dev/input).
This incluces eg button presses from an USB controller or keyboard.

* Adds documentation for the event device plugin

Includes a detailed how-to as well as example config

* Allow empty button config

This is an actual usecase in case someone wants to setup a device
and figure out the button ids by looking at the logs

* Update README.rst

* Improve README

- Remove duplicated section as suggested
- Add Zero Delay Arcade USB Encoder usecase

* Give more meaningfull name to listener thread variable

* Link to old documentation

* Remove README and fix typo

The documentation is now part of the markdown documentation

* Remove unecessary plain=1

* Remove indents in example code

There was some left over indentation from the old rtf format in the python code examples.

* Add example how to access evdev in docker

* Example for new Evdev config structure

This is tighly modeled after gpio.
In contrast to GPIO, this is a list of devices containing
each one or more input/output devices.
Eg a Joystick has keys but potentially also rumble or leds.

Currently only very simply input devices (buttons) are supported.
This structer should enable to extend this easily.

* Move evdev config to separate file

As suggested this should be a separate file, similar to the gpioz config

* Adapt evdev code to new config

Now the config for evdev is akin to GPIO.
The big difference is that multiple devices with each
multiple input/output devices are supported.

Note that the backend is still the old event device listener backend.
Thus to support more features, the backend would need to be
quite drastically overhauled.

* Update documentation for new evdev config format

* Fix wrong reference

* Fix bug to correctly check supported input d... (continued)
