EmuELEC CFW allows users to define custom button mappings, but PortMaster ignores them and uses /tmp/gamecontrollerdb.txt, a copy of $controlfolder/gamecontrollerdb.txt.

This PR overrides the gamecontrollerdb file used by PortMaster to use the EmuELEC database at
${HOME}/.config/SDL-GameControllerDB/gamecontrollerdb.txt instead.
