Joystick refresh

The running script cannot use joypads connected after. It would be nice if we have a function that could recheck lowlevel.library or whatever it is using.

Hmm, actually, this should already work. When you use CountJoysticks() Hollywood will check ports 0 to 3 for game input devices.

It is working indeed, especially on MorphOS :-)
On OS4 it is not working dinamically. I'm getting tired of these problems, so started to migrate my stuff to MOS.

On OS4 it depends if its working on this:

The controller have to be configured with AmigaInput-Prefs to one low-level-port.
Once configured, it works, but AmigaInput isn't that stable sadly, so in some cases it can fail.
