Let the player map any usable inventory item to the D-pad cardinals

[noctonca]

With the left stick fully responsible for movement, each of the 4 D-pad cardinals could have an inventory item assigned to it (mappable from the inventory), to minimise inventory navigation during combat/action. This would replace the game's several fixed pre-packaged item mappings with player-chosen ones.

Request

• Let the player bind any usable inventory item to each of the 4 D-pad cardinals, configured from the inventory screen.
