// Simple example for decoding input as actions, allowing remapping of input to different keys or gamepad buttons
// For example instead of using `IsKeyDown(KEY_LEFT)`, you can use `IsActionDown(ACTION_LEFT)`
// which can be reassigned to e.g. KEY_A and also assigned to a gamepad button. the action will trigger with either gamepad or keys
