Fixes #70 for my windows 7 and windows 11

Yeah, that confirms, that the issue is padding related. Pleas check out the branch, which I attached to the ticket, if that works for you.

This fix is not spec conform, but it is a step into right direction. The possible solution could be https://github.com/necroware/gameport-adapter/tree/win10-usb-hid-fix

Hi, I've made an integration of a Pico Pro inside of an old Sidewinder 3d pro. This commit was exactly the one that made it work on windows 10. It a bit specific case, because i don't need either dip switches or compatibility with other joysticks. Thanks!

I was also thinking, if there is no generic solution and it seems off-spec to maybe add a dipsswitch like "sidewinder Windows", "sidewinder alternate protocol" or similar
