Summary by CodeRabbit
Documentation
Added a guide for setting up a PlayStation Access Controller with Flock XR, including button and joystick mapping, saving profiles, Bluetooth pairing on supported devices, and testing inputs.
The guide also describes spatial mapping for other accessibility controllers.
The pull request adds a guide for configuring and connecting a PlayStation Access Controller for Flock XR. It also updates .gitignore to exclude .DS_Store files.
Changes: Controller setup guide
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Profile and input configuration docs/playstation-access-controller-setup.md
The guide describes creating a controller profile, mapping cardinal buttons, and configuring integrated and external joysticks.
Profile storage and Bluetooth pairing docs/playstation-access-controller-setup.md
The guide explains saving the profile to onboard memory and pairing the controller with iOS, Android, Windows, or macOS.
The setup guide sends users to a PS5 menu path that does not match PlayStation's documentation. It also documents East and North button numbers in the reverse of how Flock XR reads them. Users following the guide may not find the profile controls, or may get swapped button behavior. Fix both before merging; the rest of the change is safe.

When the controller uses the standard Gamepad mapping, Flock XR receives East as BUTTON2 and North as BUTTON1. The table and validation list currently document the reverse assignments. Update both sections, or document and verify an explicit remap for each target browser.
