Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

In some gamepad, like BSP D8, vibration is terrible and you have to turn it off. So you have to play without rumble feature. In this cases it would be nice to force smartphone to vibrate, even if moonlight has detected that the controller supports rumble feature.

Describe the solution you'd like

Start by locating Android controller rumble handling and the smartphone vibration integration, then determine how the requested force-vibration behavior should be exposed. Done means the phone can vibrate even when Moonlight detects controller rumble support, including for the described BSP D8 case.
