SC-Controller: version 0.6.3 released

sc-controller, the Linux user-mode driver for the Steam- and other controllers (eg. DS4/DS5), has been released in version 0.6.3.

The headline change is initial, still experimental support for the new Steam Controller (2026). Other than that, this release fixes Bluetooth disconnects on the DS5 and generic evdev controllers, gets DS5 rumble working over evdev, and squashes several bugs around profile icons, right-stick input display and D-pad display in the input mapper. Packagers should note the new dependency python-hidraw-pure.
