HID: hid-sony.c: Fix sending Output reports to the Sixaxis
The Sixaxis does not want the report_id as part of the data packet in
Output reports, so we have to discard buf[0] when sending the actual
control message.
Add also some documentation about that and about why
hdev->hid_output_raw_report needs to be overridden.
