Add toggle hotkey to autofire plugin

[jackrjli]

I added an optional toggle hotkey for the autofire plugin that turns autofire on/off for a button. This is useful for games where you want to have both autofire and non-autofire but don't want different buttons for the two. For example, in Fire Shark the blue and green weapons benefit from autofire, but the red weapon breaks with autofire. The toggle hotkey lets you turn off autofire when using the red weapon without having to switch to a different fire button.

I realise there are games where you want autofire in some situations but not others (e.g. Fire Shark that you mentioned, and also in Super X you don’t want autofire for the blue weapon at high power levels or any weapon with Super Power, but you do want autofire for the red and green weapons without Super Power and also for the blue weapon at low power levels).

But how much benefit does this approach actually provide in practice? Instead of having separate controls for autofire and non-autofire, you need separate controls fire and toggle autofire. It doesn’t actually save you a control – you need two controls either way.

Yes, you'd still need two controls; the difference would be whether you'd tap or hold that second button. In theory you could save on buttons if you have multiple autofire buttons that you toggle with the same control, but I don't know of any games where you'd actually do that. I admit the desire for this is probably quite niche; I haven't seen (or looked for) anyone asking for this.
