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.)
This is just stuff I noticed while working on the wikiheaders updates. A
thorough pass over all the docs would not be terrible, and maybe a simple
script to check for consistency (does everything have a `\since` on it? etc)
might be nice, too.
- Simplified public API, simplified backend interface.
- Camera device hotplug events.
- Thread code is split up so it backends that provide own threads can use it.
- Added "dummy" backend.
Note that CoreMedia (Apple) and Android backends need to be updated, as does
the testcamera app (testcameraminimal works).
