When the native window or surface backing the SDL window changes, e.g.,
when the activity is resumed, we should also update the corresponding
window pointer properties (SDL_PROP_WINDOW_ANDROID_{WINDOW,SURFACE}
_POINTER) so that they remain in sync.
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.
This change also decouples the pause/resume handling from the video subsystem on Android, so applications that don't use SDL for video can get application life cycle events.
The semantics for the life cycle events are that they need to be handled in an event watch callback, and once they've been delivered, the application will block until it's been resumed. SDL_HINT_ANDROID_BLOCK_ON_PAUSE can be used to control that behavior, and if that's set to "0", then the application will continue to run in the background at low CPU usage until being resumed or stopped.
SDL_HINT_ANDROID_BLOCK_ON_PAUSE_PAUSEAUDIO has been removed, and the audio will be paused when the application is paused.

This was done to SDL_DisplayMode for consistency with SDL_Surface and gives it a type so we don't have to do casts in SDL code.
I considered switching to an ID and hashing the driver data, etc. but all of that involved a lot of internal code churn and this solution gives us flexibility in how we handle this in the future.
After consideration, I made this renaming global across the project, for consistency.

SDL_StartTextInput(), SDL_StopTextInput(), SDL_TextInputActive(), SDL_ClearComposition(), and SDL_SetTextInputRect() all now take a window parameter.
This change also fixes IME candidate positioning when SDL_SetTextInputRect() is called before SDL_StartTextInput(), as is recommended in the documentation.
This declares that any `const char *` returned from SDL is owned by SDL, and
promises to be valid _at least_ until the next time the event queue runs, or
SDL_Quit() is called, even if the thing that owns the string gets destroyed
or changed before then.
This is noted in the headers as "the SDL_GetStringRule", so this will both be
greppable to find a detailed explaination in docs/README-strings.md and
wikiheaders will automatically turn it into a link we can point at the
appropriate documentation.
Fixes#9902.
(and several FIXMEs, both known and yet-undocumented.)
- SDL_RWops is now an opaque struct.
- SDL_AllocRW is gone. If an app is creating a custom RWops, they pass the
function pointers to SDL_CreateRW(), which are stored internally.
- SDL_RWclose is gone, there is only SDL_DestroyRW(), which calls the
implementation's `->close` method before freeing other things.
- There is only one path to create and use RWops now, so we don't have to
worry about whether `->close` will call SDL_DestroyRW, or if this will
risk any Properties not being released, etc.
- SDL_RWFrom* still works as expected, for getting a RWops without having
to supply your own implementation. Objects from these functions are also
destroyed with SDL_DestroyRW.
- Lots of other cleanup and SDL3ization of the library code.
Android claims to work with multiple devices, but doesn't actually appear to
(at least, afaict), and it will report tons of devices that all just seem
to play to the current default output, so for now, turn this off and only
expose a default device.
And then, with that default output, attempt to recover on errors by throwing
away the current AAudioStream and building a new one.
This let me plug/unplug a set of headphones from the headphone jack and audio
would switch correctly to the new output.
The current status is stored in the SDL_rwops 'status' field to be able to determine whether a 0 return value is caused by end of file, an error, or a non-blocking source not being ready.
The functions to read sized datatypes now return SDL_bool so you can detect read errors.

This involved moving an `#ifdef` out of SDL_audio.c for thread priority,
so the default ThreadInit now does the usual stuff for non-Android platforms,
the Android platforms provide an implementatin of ThreadInit with their
side of the `#ifdef` and other platforms that implement ThreadInit
incorporated the appropriate code...which is why WASAPI is touched in here.
The Android bits compile, but have not been tested, and there was some
reworkings in the Java bits, so this might need some further fixes still.
