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
Without using <inttypes.h>, SDL_PRIx64 will expand to llx, but on 64-bit
FreeBSD platforms (u)int64_t is `(usigned) long`:
SDL_test_memory.c:261:77: error: format specifies type 'unsigned long long' but the argument has type 'Uint64' (aka 'unsigned long') [-Werror,-Wformat]
This commit updates config_minimal.h to also assume presence of inttypes.h
for everything except old MSVC.
Adds hint "SDL_WINDOWS_DPI_SCALING" which can be set to "1" to
change the SDL coordinate system units to be DPI-scaled points, rather
than pixels everywhere.
This means windows will be appropriately sized, even when created on
high-DPI displays with scaling.
e.g. requesting a 640x480 window from SDL, on a display with 125%
scaling in Windows display settings, will create a window with an
800x600 client area (in pixels).
Setting this to "1" implicitly requests process DPI awareness
(setting SDL_WINDOWS_DPI_AWARENESS is unnecessary),
and forces SDL_WINDOW_ALLOW_HIGHDPI on all windows.
The hint allows setting a specific DPI awareness ("unaware", "system", "permonitor", "permonitorv2").
This is the first part of High-DPI support on Windows ( https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/2119 ).
It doesn't implement a virtualized SDL coordinate system, which will be
addressed in a later commit. (This hint could be useful for SDL apps
that want 1 SDL unit = 1 pixel, though.)
Detecting and behaving correctly under per-monitor V2
(calling AdjustWindowRectExForDpi where needed) should fix the
following issues:
https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/3286https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/4712
Add the hint "SDL_VIDEO_WAYLAND_MODE_EMULATION", which can be used to disable mode emulation under Wayland. When disabled, only the desktop and/or native display resolution is exposed.
- 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
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
* Add changes from code review by @ccawley2011, #5597, overall cleanup
* Update N-Gage README, minor cleanup and rephrasing
* Call SDL_SetMainReady() before calling SDL_main, return SDL_main instead of main
This can be used to check whether untrusted sizes would cause overflow
when used to calculate how much memory is needed.

For stable releases, this gives us the ability to make bugfix-only point
releases such as 2.24.1 if we want to, and distinguish between them
programmatically. For example, this ability could have been useful after
2.0.16 to fix Xwayland regressions, and after 2.0.18 to fix event loop
regressions.
For development releases, this gives us the ability to make multiple
prereleases during the same feature cycle, and distinguish between them
programmatically. For example, this would have been useful during 2.0.22
development, which went through three prereleases before reaching the
final release.

Now that we've said this will be removed from SDL 3, we're free to use
any encoding that is compatible with existing SDL versions and will still
compare correctly for all SDL 2 version numbers. This allows the SDL 2
minor version to go beyond 1 digit, limited only by the size of
SDL_version.minor (which is 8 bits), making the largest possible version
number 2.255.99.
The patchlevel (micro version) is still limited to 2 digits.

The encoding used in SDL_VERSIONNUM (e.g. 2.0.22 -> 2022) cannot
represent 2-digit minor versions without overflowing from the hundreds
digit into the thousands digit, which produces confusing version
numbers that will compare incorrectly when the major version is increased
to 3.
However, we can sidestep this problem by declaring that SDL_VERSIONNUM
will no longer be present in SDL 3, which means it only needs to be able
to represent SDL 2 version numbers losslessly.
