#1276: righthand gamepad buttons mapped to keypad arrowkeys

According to xev, the righthand gamepad buttons are still mapped to KP_UP,
_DOWN, _RIGHT, and _LEFT. They should be mapped to unique values so that
game developers can start to use them.
Specifically, Block Party would be much easier to use if the lefthand
buttons performed some operations and the righthand buttons performed
others. Also, I have a friend who wants to write a sokoban clone, and he
will have a lot of trouble with basic game functions (Resetting the level)
without unique keycodes.
