Windows Phone does not appear to allow VSync to be turned off. Doing so appears
to either result in content not getting drawn (when the D3D debug runtime is
turned off), or forcing VSync back on and logging an error (when the D3D debug
runtime is turned on).
VSync had been getting turned on anyways, this change just notes such:
- via the WinRT README
- by always setting the SDL_RENDERER_PRESENTVSYNC flag when creating an
SDL_Renderer on Windows Phone

Here's a patch to make the 'testrelative' demo program more useful: it just makes the orange rectangle wrap around. Previously, the orange cursor would just disappear off screen if you move the mouse a lot in one direction, so it was hard to tell if relative mouse mode was still working.
- Don't create a temporary context first; this was probably due to Windows
needing one to get the address of wglCreateContextAttribsARB(), but that's
a unique quirk of WGL, and doesn't apply to glX. The glX spec explicitly says
you have to get a function pointer that works with any context from
glXGetProcAddress(), including when no context exists.
- Properly check for the GLX_ARB_create_context instead of just looking for a
non-NULL glXCreateContextAttribsARB()...some implementations, like Mesa,
never return NULL for function lookups (Mesa returns pointers into a jump
table that is filled out when the GL is initialized; since you can look up
functions before you have a valid context, it can't definitely say a function
isn't valid at that point).
Normally there's a 200 millisecond delay on all focus events in case there
was a vidmode change, now we note the last vidmode change and only impose this
delay if a change happened extremely recently.
Thanks to Epic Games for reporting this issue.

The configure script didn't differentiate between Linux and Android, unconditionally compiling in the unix implementation of SDL_sysfilesystem.c.
I'm probably one of the very few people building SDL for android using classic configure + standalone toolchain, so this has gone undetected all along.
This is a little macro magic to use malloc() directly instead of SDL_malloc(),
etc, so static analysis tests that know about the C runtime can function
properly, and understand that we are dealing with heap allocations, etc.
This changed our static analysis report from 5 outstanding bugs to 30.
5x as many bugs were hidden by SDL_malloc() not being recognized as malloc()
by the static analyzer!
SDL_WinRTRunApp() is used on WinRT to launch a main(int, char **)-style
function. It has optional, and experimental support for launching content
inside a XAML control, backed by a main() function running on a separate thread.
This is provided via it's 2nd parameter, which can be a pointer to a XAML
control. (If NULL, XAML support will not be used.)
This change renames the experimental feature's parameter (to SDL_WinRTRunApp())
as "reserved", until such time as the functionality is ready for use. It will
likely be renamed again in the future, when running SDL on top of a XAML control
via a separate thread, becomes reasonably usable.
