This PR fix using incorrect id while handle joystick events.
Description
In the function getJoystick, the id pass as an argument refers to N'th joystick on the system (system device index). But this index is not the value which will identify this joystick in the future joystick events. The joystick's instance id (SDL_JoystickID) will be used there instead.
However, now we are using system device index as id while handle joystick events. It leads to crashes when handle events after connecting additional joysticks and pass wrong id to signals in update function when working with multiple joysticks.
Solution
Add additional instanceID field for SDL_JoystickID in QJoystickDevice. Use this field to identify joystick while handle events.
Note that "instanceID" field is permanent id of joystick (and it will not be changed untill joystick is reconnected), while "id" field can be changed.
