"sixpair" is a standalone tool to manage PS3 controllers. It was the
only tool not being built by default.

To build it, it is necessary to check for libusb-1.0 (besides the
existing libusb 0.1 check). The check is optional, and sixpair will not
be built if libusb-1.0 headers are not installed.

I personally never used this tool. So I'm not sure if the best approach is to
completely remove it instead. If that's the case, let me know so I send a patch
removing the .c file instead.
Hi Anderson,

I'd say the .c file can be removed if you want to, when I have time I am
going to resend the playstation-peripheral plugin and the prerequisite
patches to have it as an _external_ plugin, I hope to do that next
week.

In my previous submissions of the playstation-peripheral plugin I was
removing this .c file just before adding the new plugin, and I am going
to "revert" this patch anyways, so you can choose to drop this patch
and let me remove the .c file when I add the plugin, or remove it right
now. I think there isn't much of a gain enabling the build of the
sixpair.c currently in BlueZ.

I am adding Bastien on CC as he was the author of the sixpair currently
in BlueZ, Bastien what do you think?
Don't care. Been shipping a working-but-not-perfect version of a sixpair
plugin in the Fedora bluez package for at least 2 years. I'd be very
happy to drop that patch in favour of a supported version.

Cheers
