Thad House fa24446ce3 [wpilib,cmd] Rename gamepad face-button trigger APIs to directional names (faceUp/Down/Left/Right) (#8896)
This updates gamepad trigger naming from cardinal-style face buttons
(`northFace/southFace/eastFace/westFace` and
`NorthFace/SouthFace/EastFace/WestFace`) to directional naming
(`faceUp/faceDown/faceRight/faceLeft` and
`FaceUp/FaceDown/FaceRight/FaceLeft`) to match the requested API shape.
The change is applied across Java and C++ HID/command layers, along with
related examples and binding metadata.

- **API surface updates (Java)**
  - Renamed trigger/event methods in:
    - `wpilibj` `Gamepad`
    - `commandsv2` `CommandGamepad`
    - `commandsv3` `CommandGamepad`
  - Mapping preserved:
    - `southFace` → `faceDown`
    - `eastFace` → `faceRight`
    - `westFace` → `faceLeft`
    - `northFace` → `faceUp`

- **API surface updates (C++)**
  - Renamed trigger/event methods in:
    - `wpilibc` `Gamepad`
    - `commandsv2` `CommandGamepad`
  - Mapping preserved:
    - `SouthFace` → `FaceDown`
    - `EastFace` → `FaceRight`
    - `WestFace` → `FaceLeft`
    - `NorthFace` → `FaceUp`

- **Python semiwrap updates**
- Updated `wpilibc/src/main/python/semiwrap/Gamepad.yml` method mappings
to the renamed C++ method names (`FaceDown/FaceRight/FaceLeft/FaceUp`).

- **Callsite migration**
- Updated Java examples/template code and C++ examples/template code to
use the new method names so samples remain aligned with the API rename.

- **Docs/comments alignment**
- Updated related Javadoc/reference text and example comments to use
directional terminology.

```java
// Before
driverController.southFace().onTrue(command);
driverController.eastFace().onTrue(command);

// After
driverController.faceDown().onTrue(command);
driverController.faceRight().onTrue(command);
```

```cpp
// Before
driverController.SouthFace().OnTrue(command);
driverController.EastFace().OnTrue(command);

// After
driverController.FaceDown().OnTrue(command);
driverController.FaceRight().OnTrue(command);
```
