Add single letter to controller's name to help differentiate between modes/multi devices

Things start to get confusing when 2 or more controllers are connected, specially in GPJ mode. Suggestion: Adding a "(G)" / "(P)" to the start or end of the controller's name on GPJ mode, and the selected mode's name ("SXS", "DS4", "SDF" / "X", "S", "4" ) on the rest.

I can try but device naming is unfortunately not as straight forward as it seems.

Sometimes ™️ Windows is not happy updating this value. We can experiment with how reliable this would be.

Did some experimentation; this unfortunately doesn't work reliably and will therefore only lead to more confusion. At a random pattern Windows will just fall back the display name to DS3 Compatible HID Device as per INF file, so I'd say I close this one and won't peruse any further.
