Description
I can see that the joystickbuttons.xml and joystickaxis.xml files save properly in User/Documents/Mission Planner but when the configuration window is opened it is always completely unset, just like the first time it was opened.
It also seems that the .xml files are only properly saved to if the "autodetect" feature isn't used.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue from the joystick configuration window, checking joystickbuttons.xml and joystickaxis.xml in User/Documents/Mission Planner with and without autodetect. Trace when these files are written and read, then verify that reopening the window restores the saved configuration in both cases.
