Aliasing for Xbox Series Controller with different product IDs #1272

As detailed in libretro/RetroArch#15200 and experienced by myself, the Xbox Series Controller profile applies to multiple gamepads with the exact same button layout and Vendor IDs but different product IDs which aren't matched by autoconfig. In my case, it was a color variant (product ID 2835) that had the different product ID from the main controller type (product ID 2834). In cases like this, uploading a completely different controller profile is wasteful and future changes might break a copied version of the file with a different product ID (which is the fix I'm currently using). I am creating this issue to suggest having an aliasing system where multiple product IDs can be matched to the same vendor ID and controller configuration so that there is just one file for variants of the same controller.
