Patch for DualShock 3 mapping

SDL2 seems to include a multitude of hardcoded mappings, including plenty of mappings for PlayStation 3 controller. Some of them have analog triggers (as axes), some don't.

I own two different, legimate DualShock 3 controllers (one comes from a Fat PS3 era, the other came with a PS3 Super Slim), and according to Steam Link on Raspberry Pi, they both share a GUID. This GUID is included with SDL2, albeit unfortunately with digital triggers.

I am attaching a patch correcting this, making triggers for this GUID pressure sensitive.
