[Feature Request] Allow directional mapping of analog stick axis to triggers in Steam Input

[Player]

Hello Steam developers, I'm using a Pro Controller that has no analog triggers, this causes some problems for racing games when it comes to controlling the acceleration. I managed to fix this issue in emulators by remapping RT (Right Trigger) to right analog stick up and LT (left trigger) to right analog stick down.

In Steam Input however, it can only currently be mapped to Outer Ring Command which limits it to one function only. My proposal is to allow us to set the Joystick to Directional Pad mode and set an analog mapping for each direction.

It does not need to be limited to triggers. It can also be used to map to other analog inputs. What's important is that it does not get tied exclusively to Outer Ring Command as that severely hampers the potential it has.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post! I'm very appreciative of the great possibilities that Steam Input exposes to players and for free at that.
