Several games (including Source and GoldSrc games, and Bioshock
Infinite) attempt to "fake" relative mouse mode by repeatedly warping
the cursor to the centre of the screen. Since mouse warping is not
supported under Wayland, the viewport ends up "stuck" in a rectangular
area.
Detect this case (mouse warp while the cursor is not visible), and
enable relative mouse mode, which tracks the cursor position
independently, and so can Warp successfully.
This is behind the SDL_HINT_VIDEO_WAYLAND_EMULATE_MOUSE_WARP hint, which
is enabled by default, unless the application enables relative mouse
mode itself using SDL_SetRelativeMouseMode(SDL_TRUE).
Note that there is a behavoural difference, in that relative mouse mode
typically doesn't take mouse accelleration into account, but the
repeated-warping technique does, so mouse movement can seem very slow
with this (unless the game has its own mouse accelleration option, such
as in Portal 2).
* Added support for vertical mode for Joy-Con controllers
* Added the hint SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_VERTICAL_JOY_CONS for switching to this mode
* Added support for SL/SR buttons in combined/vertical mode and L/ZL/R/ZR buttons in mini-gamepad mode
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:

* 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 makes the joystick locking more robust by holding the lock while updating joysticks.
The lock should be held when calling any SDL joystick function on a different thread than the one calling SDL_PumpEvents() and SDL_JoystickUpdate().
It is now possible to hold the lock while reinitializing the joystick subsystem, however any open joysticks will become invalid and potentially cause crashes if used afterwards.
Fixes https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/6063
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
- This allows looking up the display index for an arbitrary location rather than requiring an active window to do so.
- This change also reimplements the fallback display lookup that found the display with center closest to the window's center to instead find the display rect edge
closest to the window center (this was done in the almost identical display lookup used in SDL_windowsmodes.c, which now uses `SDL_GetPointDisplayIndex`). In
practice this should almost never be hit as it requires the window's center to not be enclosed by any display rect.
* 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
Extend the SDL_WINDOW_ALLOW_HIGHDPI flag documentation to stress the importance of querying the window drawable size after every window event to avoid rendering issues in a mixed-DPI environment.
The documentation doesn't state that the argument is ever modified,
and no implementation does so currently.
This is a non-breaking change to guarantee as much to callers.
* Xbox GDK support (14 squashed commits)
* Added basic keyboard testing
* Update readme
* Code review fixes
* Fixed issue where controller add/removal wasn't working (since the device notification events don't work on Xbox, have to use the joystick thread to poll XInput)
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
