Feature Request: Per-Session, PIN-Authorized Input Control (Gamepad/Mouse/Keyboard)

Body

I need a feature where PIN authorization can be set as temporary (one-time) and allow the host to selectively choose which inputs are granted (mouse, keyboard, or gamepad). For co-op play with friends, I want to authorize them temporarily with gamepad-only access.

I feel as though this should (or at least could) be two separate features. I have no use for temporary access, but selectable input control per client (either on the client or configurable on the server) would be valuable. Either by being able to initiate a view-only connection on demand (and/or toggling view-only mode on/off via the taskbar) or by having the server determine which clients it will allow (which types of) inputs from. Perhaps something like a configuration page for client whitelisting each input method (like, list of clients each with checkbox toggles for enabling mouse/keyboard/controller to override the set defaults).

I might just be trying to use Sunshine more as a VNC replacement/remote screen than a remote gaming interface.

As for the temp clients, I feel as though there should be two buttons on the PIN input page: instead of the "Send" button, "Add permanent client" and "Add temporary client".
