SLUGS has maintained their patches out-of-tree for a long while now.
These will eventually get merged back in, but it'll be easier to evaluate them as fresh commits instead of modifications to this old & dead code, so we'll delete this for now.

this adds an option to select the mode of the joystick in the joystick
config widget. The mode sets the setpoint type which is sent when moving
the joystick.

Also added selection from tree view for downloading

Also modified protocol to better support eof’s on list and read
commands.

These changes prevent random encapsulated data packets as being thought
to be images.

Also changes for Ack timeouts and unit testing
