game.controller.colecovision not mappable for use with bluemsx

[zach-morris]

Issue: Attempting to use BlueMSX to emulate coleco. Games will start fine, but the controller doesn't appear to be linked somehow for use with the emulator. In Kodi control settings, I've mapped the following buttons:

<device name="PLAYSTATION(R)3 Controller" provider="cocoa" vid="054C" pid="0268" buttoncount="19" axiscount="4">
        <controller id="game.controller.colecovision">
            <feature name="keypad1" button="3" />
            <feature name="keypad2" button="0" />
        </controller>
...

After starting a coleco game with BlueMSX, then pressing either of those buttons (when the screen prompts you to push the keypad 1 or keypad 2 key), nothing happens. The log shows:

When I go into advanced settings > Controls, the coleco controller shows 'Nothing to Map' rather than any configurable buttons

One of our GSoC students this summer is working on Multiplayer. If we start gathering issues like this, we can have a goal of getting things working before the summer ends.
