Xbox 360 wireless controllers expose information in the link and
capabilities reports.
Extract and use the vendor id for wireless controllers, and use
the subtype to build a nicer device name and product id.
Some xbox 360 controllers put a vid and pid into the stick capability
data, so check if this was done, and pull the vid, pid and revision from
there.
