Subject: [PATCH] emscripten: Let SDL hints be set by URL parameters.

Any parameters (key/value pairs after the '?' in a URL) that have a keyname
that starts with `SDL_` will be put into Emscripten's environment variable
emulation table at startup, before SDL_main runs.

This lets users set hints the same way they might set them from a shell's
command line on a desktop platform:

For example:

`https://example.com/my_sdl3_application.html?SDL_RENDER_DRIVER=software`

Fixes #10154.
