Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
There are multiple options available via Steam input conversions, such as a gyro disable button or chorded presses, that I personally use with Steam which I think make sense to have equivalents here.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add some more advanced way to set actions, including toggles, activating when something is not pressed, chords, etc.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Changing how some of the specific stuff functions (especially require button for gyro) makes sense as an alternative, though this isn't everything.

Additional context
I don't want to need to launch Minecraft through Steam or use desktop bindings to have access to everything - the former adds another launcher layer, and the latter can be a little annoying.
