[Bug 46361] Sonic Mania freezes/crashes when we use a gamepad on 4.0+

Yes, Proton uses Wine 4.2. The last released version is Wine 4.5. That's one
month and a half old. Whether or not that's "old" according to some arbitrary
cutoff point, there are still some changes to the joystick stack that have
happened in that month and a half.

Again, it's not difficult to see what's different between Proton and Wine. I
can do that just by looking at git logs. What I cannot easily do is determine
which of those changes is responsible for causing this bug, or fixing it. This
is why I need to ask for help of a different nature.
