The automatic controller switching behavior (where the active controller switches to whichever last provided input) makes it impossible to run multiple game instances side-by-side with different controllers. This adds a toggleable "Auto-Switch Controllers" option in global settings (default: enabled) that gates the tickInactiveController() loop. When disabled, a "Current Controller" dropdown appears allowing manual controller selection. The dropdown dynamically refreshes on controller hotplug events by rebuilding the settings screen.

Summary
Motivation
The automatic controller switching makes it impossible to run multiple game instances side-by-side with different controllers, since pressing a button on controller B in one instance causes the other instance to also switch to controller B.
