`Input.is_action_just_pressed()` may return true for multiple frames in a row when using joypad axis

System information

Windows 10.0.19045 - Vulkan (Forward+) - dedicated NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 (NVIDIA; 30.0.15.1403) - Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700HQ CPU @ 2.80GHz (8 Threads)

Issue description

func _process(delta):
	print(Input.is_action_just_pressed("ui_right"))

This may return true for single analog movement. It's a regression
(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

Steps to reproduce

Use the code above with a controller (tested with Xbox One S controller). Make sure you have joypad axis assigned to an action.

I'm able to reproduce.

Holding the stick at the extreme of certain angle (roughly bottom-right) and moving it along the circumference will also make Input.is_action_just_pressed return true for very minor changes in the stick angle. I wasn't expecting that.

Here's the code I used:

func _input(event):
	if (Input.is_action_just_pressed("ui_right")):
		print(event.as_text())

func _process(delta):
	print(Input.is_action_just_pressed("ui_right"))

Here's the relevant output (tested in Linux):

Joypad Motion on Axis 0 (Left Stick X-Axis, Joystick 0 X-Axis) with Value 0.74
true
Joypad Motion on Axis 0 (Left Stick X-Axis, Joystick 0 X-Axis) with Value 0.73
Joypad Motion on Axis 1 (Left Stick Y-Axis, Joystick 0 Y-Axis) with Value 0.85
true
Joypad Motion on Axis 0 (Left Stick X-Axis, Joystick 0 X-Axis) with Value 0.68
Joypad Motion on Axis 1 (Left Stick Y-Axis, Joystick 0 Y-Axis) with Value 0.91
true
Joypad Motion on Axis 0 (Left Stick X-Axis, Joystick 0 X-Axis) with Value 0.66
Joypad Motion on Axis 1 (Left Stick Y-Axis, Joystick 0 Y-Axis) with Value 0.93
true
Joypad Motion on Axis 0 (Left Stick X-Axis, Joystick 0 X-Axis) with Value 0.63
Joypad Motion on Axis 1 (Left Stick Y-Axis, Joystick 0 Y-Axis) with Value 0.94
true
Joypad Motion on Axis 0 (Left Stick X-Axis, Joystick 0 X-Axis) with Value 0.60
Joypad Motion on Axis 1 (Left Stick Y-Axis, Joystick 0 Y-Axis) with Value 0.95

Edit: Now that I think about it again, it seems that Input.is_action_just_pressed returning true in multiple frames (in Linux) may be related to the above from my tests.

My comment above was definitely related to that issue. I've marked my comment as off-topic.

However, there's a chance this issue is specific to Windows, unless it is fixed by #82056.

That PR fixes it, so closing as duplicate.
