Subject: [bug#66597] [PATCH] gnu: Add sdl2-gamecontrollerdb.

Hello!

The share path is not documented anywhere, I just used a package name to construct it.

There is no standard path where this database is expected to be, it must be specified.

I updated the patch with your recommendations and moved the package to the sdl module.
