[Rock-dev] Cleanup the RawCommand datatype of controldev

[Matthias Goldhoorn]

The "RawCommand" is not really an raw command,

i would suggest the following new structure and push the changes this 
evening (means you have to adapt your code):


struct RawCommand{
     enum Axis{
         RX=0,
         RY,
         RZ,
         TX,
         TY,
         TZ
};

     std::string deviceIdentifier; //some device identifier
     base::time time; //timestamp

     // Index 1: num-of input axis, //index 2: dimensions of this axis
     //If you have an gamepand which has 2 2Dknops you have an [2][2] 
size'd array
     // for an 3D Mouse you could have [1][6]
     std::vector<std::vector<Axis> > axisValue;

     std::vector<bool> buttonValue; //Three State switches are handles 
as two
}

Since we are having multiple input devies that are "quite" different:

Graupner MC-20
Normal Joystick
Gamepads
SteeringWheel
3D-Spacemouse

This datatype will cover all of them..., the handling can later be done 
in some "converter" Tasks...

some vetos? (Add an new "ReallyRawJoystickCommand? ) -1

Greetings,
Matthias
