X11 has a so-called primary selection, which you can use by marking text and middle-clicking elsewhere to copy the marked text.
There are 3 new API functions in `SDL_clipboard.h`, which work exactly like their clipboard equivalents.
## Test Instructions
* Run the tests (just a copy of the clipboard tests): `$ ./test/testautomation --filter Clipboard`
* Build and run this small application:
<details>
```C
#include <SDL.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdbool.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
void print_error(const char *where)
{
const char *errstr = SDL_GetError();
if (errstr == NULL || errstr[0] == '\0')
return;
fprintf(stderr, "SDL Error after '%s': %s\n", where, errstr);
SDL_ClearError();
}
int main()
{
char text_buf[256];
srand(time(NULL));
SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO);
print_error("SDL_INIT()");
SDL_Window *window = SDL_CreateWindow("Primary Selection Test", SDL_WINDOWPOS_UNDEFINED,
SDL_WINDOWPOS_UNDEFINED, 400, 400, SDL_WINDOW_SHOWN);
print_error("SDL_CreateWindow()");
SDL_Renderer *renderer = SDL_CreateRenderer(window, -1, SDL_RENDERER_ACCELERATED);
print_error("SDL_CreateRenderer()");
bool quit = false;
unsigned int do_render = 0;
while (!quit) {
SDL_Event event;
while (SDL_PollEvent(&event)) {
print_error("SDL_PollEvent()");
switch (event.type) {

break;
} case SDL_KEYDOWN: {

case SDLK_ESCAPE:
case SDLK_q:

snprintf(text_buf, sizeof(text_buf), "foo%d", rand());
SDL_SetClipboardText(text_buf);
print_error("SDL_SetClipboardText()");

break;
case SDLK_v: {

print_error("SDL_HasClipboardText()");
char *text = SDL_GetClipboardText();
print_error("SDL_GetClipboardText()");
printf("text=\"%s\"\n", text);
SDL_free(text);
break;
} case SDLK_d:
snprintf(text_buf, sizeof(text_buf), "bar%d", rand());
SDL_SetPrimarySelectionText(text_buf);
print_error("SDL_SetPrimarySelectionText()");

print_error("SDL_GetPrimarySelectionText()");
printf("text=\"%s\"\n", text);
SDL_free(text);
break;
} default:
break;
}
break;
} default: {
break;
}}
}
// create less noise with WAYLAND_DEBUG=1
if (do_render == 0) {
SDL_RenderPresent(renderer);
print_error("SDL_RenderPresent()");
}
do_render += 1;
usleep(12000);
}
SDL_DestroyRenderer(renderer);
SDL_DestroyWindow(window);
SDL_Quit();
print_error("quit");
return 0;
}
```
</details>
* Use c,v,d,f to get and set the clipboard and primary selection.
* Mark text and middle-click also in other applications.
* For wayland under x:
* `$ mutter --wayland --no-x11 --nested`
* `$ XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland ./<path_to_test_appl_binary>`
This is now used as a crc field in the mapping rather than directly in mapping guids, for better mapping compatibility between versions of SDL.
Added SDL_GetJoystickGUIDInfo() to get device information encoded in a joystick GUID, so that mapping programs can clear the CRC from the GUID when generating mappings.
sort_controllers.py has been updated to extract the CRC from mappings created by older mapping programs and convert it into the new crc field. It will also take the CRC into account when checking for duplicate mappings.
Also regenerated the GUIDs for the PS2/PSP/Vita controller mappings, fixing https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/6151
* Added support for mini-gamepad mode for Joy-Con controllers, matching the mapping for hid-nintendo on Linux and iOS 16
* Added the ability to merge left and right Joy-Con controllers into a single Pro-style controller
* Added the hint SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_SWITCH_COMBINE_JOY_CONS to control this merging functionality
* Removed the hint SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_JOY_CONS
Also added test functions for multi-line debug text display
Currently this only supports ASCII, as the font doesn't have the correct Latin-1 characters
Instead of using `trunc` to check the first ten digits, inexact test now
relies on an epsilon defining an acceptable range for the expected
result to be in.
Many tests were using the same underlying routine, as such three helper
functions were added:
- A wrapper to test double -> double functions.
- A wrapper to test (double, double) -> double functions,
- A wrapper for range tests on double -> double functions.
Split infinity and zero checks in their own functions.
The result of NAN tests is now logged.
The SDL_TestCaseReference structure were renamed to be more explicit.
Fixes bug with viewport not updating when moving window between monitors with different scale
factors on Windows (this should also fix the same issue on other OS'es, though untested)
- SDL_JoystickGUID -> SDL_GUID (though we retain a type alias)
- Operations for GUID <-> String ops are now in
src/SDL_guid.c and include/SDL_guid.h
- The corresponding Joystick operations delegate to SDL_guid.c
- Added test/testguid.c
I had assumed that only Linux users would be interested in GNOME-style
installed-tests, but in principle there's no reason why they can't be
used on non-Linux.

Added the ability to specify a name and the product VID/PID for a virtual controller
Also added a test case to testgamecontroller, if you pass --virtual as a parameter
This makes it more convenient to compile them alongside SDL, install
them in an optional package and use them as smoke-tests or diagnostic
tools. The default installation directory is taken from GNOME's
installed-tests, which seems as good a convention as any other:

As well as reducing duplication, this lets the tests load their resources
from the SDL_GetBasePath() on platforms that support it, which is useful
if the tests are compiled along with the rest of SDL and installed below
/usr as manual tests, similar to GNOME's installed-tests convention.
Thanks to Ozkan Sezer for the OS/2 build glue.

In Autotools, these are run by `make -C ${builddir}/test check`.
In CMake, they're run by `make -C ${builddir} test` or
`ninja -C ${builddir} test` or `ctest --test-dir ${builddir}`.

At the time I contributed this unit test, SDL had a relatively narrow
definition of what is a keyboard, approximately matching udev
ID_INPUT_KEYBOARD. Now it uses the equivalent of udev ID_INPUT_KEY,
which matches anything with keyboard keys, and not just reasonably
complete alphanumeric keyboards.
Fixes: 040bd7a9 "Fix udev not detecting ID_INPUT_KEY devices when udev is not running"

At the time I contributed this unit test, SDL didn't understand Linux
touchpads, but now it does.

Call SDL_RenderPresent after calling SDL_RenderReadPixels.
From "include/SDL_render.h":
"If you're using this on the main rendering target, it should be called after rendering and before SDL_RenderPresent()."
