[Investigating] TDC and Dead Zones

[tech_op2000]

The TDC Slew Horizontal and TDC Slew Vertical Axis assignments are not respecting deadzones when determining whether a slewing event has taken place. This causes sensors like the DMT to stop being caged and start tracking a target location even though no Slew event was commanded by the user because of very small inputs into the TDC Axis that should have been disregarded due to a deadzone.
 

Steps to reproduce. 
1. Assign TDC Slew Horizontal or TDC Slew Vertical to a controller axis. 
2. Set Deadzone in the in game axis tune to something ridiculous. For my tests I set it to 90 percent.
3. In flight, select the DMT and cage it to velocity vector
4. Move the TDC axis less than the deadzone set. Note that the DMT will uncage and begin ground tracking. Also Note that it will not actually slew any until the preset deadzone is reached.

- For me, the DMT will uncage instantly due to any input on the axis. Since it is an axis and is not perfect, this means that for me pressing NWS/Cage will move the DMT to my velocity vector, then it will immediately uncage and begin a ground track. Small inaccuracies in the joystick centering cannot be corrected for by setting a deadzone to prevent unintended uncaging of sensors.

- Expected behavior: If a deadzone is set to the axis, the dmt and other sensors should not recognize an input and uncage until the saxis has been moved past the player defined deadzone in the control options.

Seconded - happens in snowplow mode on the TPOD very often, it moves to a ground stabilized track without any input even if set up with a large deadzone.
