Also,
- Move mingw's pkg-support into build-scripts
- Add type annotations to python scripts for mypy
- ci: use v4 tag of actions/cache
- cmake: use PYTHON3_EXECUTABLE for running xxd.py
(Python3::Interpreter is not always recognized.)
It was intended to make the API easier to use, but various automatic garbage collection all had flaws, and making the application periodically clean up temporary memory added cognitive load to using the API, and in many cases was it was difficult to restructure threaded code to handle this.
So, we're largely going back to the original system, where the API returns allocated results and you free them.
In addition, to solve the problems we originally wanted temporary memory for:
* Short strings with a finite count, like device names, get stored in a per-thread string pool.
* Events continue to use temporary memory internally, which is cleaned up on the next event processing cycle.
Move the Wayland pointer warp emulation code up to the SDL mouse layer, and activate it when a client attempts to warp a hidden mouse cursor when the hint is set.
testrelative adds the ability to test the warp emulation activation/deactivation with the --warp parameter and 'c' key for toggling cursor visibility.
This was just causing confusion and anxiety. SDL temporary memory will be automatically freed on the main thread when processing events and on other threads when it ages out after a second. The application can free it directly by calling SDL_ClaimTemporaryMemory() to get ownership of the pointer, if necessary.
We're limiting the functions to rects with positions and sizes < 1 billion for speed, which is totally fine for most SDL use cases. If you need rectangles larger than that, you can roll your own functions that use 64-bit intermediate values and do proper overflow handling of output values.

* A floating point rectangle contains all points >= x and <= x + w
* A floating point rectangle is only empty if it has negative width. The zero rectangle contains the zero point.
* Adjacent floating point rectangles intersect along their shared side

This allows threads to free memory from their local pool without affecting events that are queued, and to transfer memory ownership cleanly between threads that are queuing and dequeuing events.
Applying these changes to external code doesn't actually improve anything, and within the context of the other Get* functions for renderers and surfaces, these stand out as outliers, so I'm going to back this change out.
It also now caches at the higher level, so the platform-specific bits don't
change their interface much.
A little code hygiene work was applied to some of the platform bits on top of
this.

This provides a highly accurate sleep function for your application, although you are still subject to being switched out occasionally.

While it makes sense to get an object pointer from an object ID, you want to get object attributes for an ID, otherwise e.g. GetNameFromID() sounds like it's a name ID, not an object ID. This is also consistent with the function naming convention in SDL2.
Currently, all SDL_Surfaces with an indexed pixel format have an
associated SDL_Palette. This palette either consists of entirely the
colour black, or -- in the special case of 1-bit surfaces, black and
white.
When an indexed surface is blitted to another indexed surface, a 'map'
is generated from the source surface's palette to the destination
surfaces palette, in order to preserve the look of the image if the
palettes differ.
However, in most cases, applications will want to blit the raw index
values, rather than translate to make the colours as similar as
possible. For instance, the destination surface's palette may have been
modified to fade the screen out.
This change allows an indexed surface to have no associated palette. If
either the source or destination surface of a blit do not have a
palette, then the raw indices are copied (assuming both have an indexed
format).
This mimics better what happens with most other APIs (such as
DirectDraw), where most users do not set a palette on any surface but
the screen, whose palette is implicitly used for the whole application.
This is a cut-down version of testsprite which uses SDL_Surface (and
SDL_GetWindowSurface), instead of the Render API. It's useful for
quickly validating that blitting works, including some basic format
conversion (with a palette).

Turns out that there isn't a strong OpenGL naming convention for "Delete" ...
WGL offers "wglDeleteContext" but the GLX equivalent is "glxDestroyContext"
and then EGL sealed the deal by going with Destroy as well! Since it matches
SDL3 naming conventions (Create/Destroy), we're renaming it.
Fixes#10197.
SDL_Surface has been simplified and internal details are no longer in the public structure.
The `format` member of SDL_Surface is now an enumerated pixel format value. You can get the full details of the pixel format by calling `SDL_GetPixelFormatDetails(surface->format)`. You can get the palette associated with the surface by calling SDL_GetSurfacePalette(). You can get the clip rectangle by calling SDL_GetSurfaceClipRect().
SDL_PixelFormat has been renamed SDL_PixelFormatDetails and just describes the pixel format, it does not include a palette for indexed pixel types.
SDL_PixelFormatEnum has been renamed SDL_PixelFormat and is used instead of Uint32 for API functions that refer to pixel format by enumerated value.
SDL_MapRGB(), SDL_MapRGBA(), SDL_GetRGB(), and SDL_GetRGBA() take an optional palette parameter for indexed color lookups.
