HID: wiimote: add pro-controller analog stick calibration
The analog sticks of the pro-controller might report slightly off values. To guarantee a uniform setup, we now calibrate analog-stick values during pro-controller setup. Unfortunately, the pro-controller fails during normal EEPROM reads and I couldn't figure out whether there are any calibration values stored on the device. Therefore, we now use the first values reported by the device (iff they are not _way_ off, which would indicate movement) to initialize the calibration values. To allow users to change this calibration data, we provide a pro_calib sysfs attribute. We also change the "flat" values so user-space correctly smoothes our data. It makes slightly off zero-positions less visible while still guaranteeing highly precise movement reports. Note that the pro controller reports zero-positions in a quite huge range (at least: -100 to +100).

+Description: This attribute is only provided if the device was detected as a
+ pro-controller. It provides a single line with 4 calibration
+ values for all 4 analog sticks. Format is: "x1:y1 x2:y2". Data
+ is prefixed with a +/-. Each value is a signed 16bit number.
+ Data is encoded as decimal numbers and specifies the offsets of
+ the analog sticks of the pro-controller.
+ Calibration data is already applied by the kernel to all input
+ values but may be used by user-space to perform other
+ transformations.
+ Calibration data is detected by the kernel during device setup.
+ You can write "scan\n" into this file to re-trigger calibration.
+ You can also write data directly in the form "x1:y1 x2:y2" to
+ set the calibration values manually.
