Almost nothing checks these return values, and there's no reason a valid
lock should fail to operate. The cases where a lock isn't valid (it's a
bogus pointer, it was previously destroyed, a thread is unlocking a lock it
doesn't own, etc) are undefined behavior and always were, and should be
treated as an application bug.
Reference Issue #8096.
The following objects now have properties that can be user modified:
* SDL_AudioStream
* SDL_Gamepad
* SDL_Joystick
* SDL_RWops
* SDL_Renderer
* SDL_Sensor
* SDL_Surface
* SDL_Texture
* SDL_Window
This is meant to offer a simplified API for people that are either migrating
directly from SDL2 with minimal effort or just want to make noise without
any of the fancy new API features.
Users of this API can just deal with a single SDL_AudioStream as their only
object/handle into the audio subsystem.
They are still allowed to open multiple devices (or open the same device
multiple times), but cannot change stream bindings on logical devices opened
through this function.
Destroying the single audio stream will also close the logical device behind
the scenes.
The sequence order of the four paddles is not obvious, with SDL and Xbox
controllers swapping the order of P2 and P3 relative to each other.
If we group them into left and right, then it becomes more obvious.

The current status is stored in the SDL_rwops 'status' field to be able to determine whether a 0 return value is caused by end of file, an error, or a non-blocking source not being ready.
The functions to read sized datatypes now return SDL_bool so you can detect read errors.

This rips up the entire SDL audio subsystem! While we still feed the audio device from a separate thread, the audio callback into the app is now gone a totally optional alternative.
Now the app will bind an SDL_AudioStream to a given device and feed data to it. As many streams as one likes can be bound to a device; SDL will mix them all into a single buffer and feed the device from there.
So not only does this function as a basic mixer, it also means that multiple device opens are handled seamlessly (so if you want to open the device for your game, but you also link to a library that provides VoIP and it wants to open the device separately, you don't have to worry about stepping on each other, or that the OS will fail to allow multiple opens of the same device, etc).

Render targets are a core feature of SDL 3.0, so this flag has been removed.
The OpenGL ES renderer still doesn't support them, but we'll deal with that later.

Also renamed most cases of SDL_GAMEPAD_TYPE_UNKNOWN to SDL_GAMEPAD_TYPE_STANDARD, and SDL_GetGamepadType() will return SDL_GAMEPAD_TYPE_UNKNOWN only if the gamepad is invalid.
Removing SDL_GAMEPAD_TYPE_VIRTUAL allows a virtual controller to emulate another gamepad type. The other controller types can be treated as generic controllers by applications without special glyph or functionality treatment.
Also renamed SDL_GetDisplayOrientation() SDL_GetDisplayCurrentOrientation()
The natural orientation of the primary display is the frame of reference for accelerometer and gyro sensor readings.
Consolidate the X11_WMCLASS and WAYLAND_WMCLASS envvars into one SDL_HINT_APP_ID hint. This hint serves the same purpose on both windowing systems to allow desktop compositors to identify and group windows together, as well as associate applications with their desktop settings and icons.
The common code for retrieving the value is now consolidated under core/unix/SDL_appid.c as it's common to *nix platforms, and the value is now retrieved at window creation time instead of being cached by the video driver at startup so that changes to the hint after video initialization and before window creation will be seen, as well as to accommodate cases where applications want to use different values for different windows.
We have gotten feedback that abstracting the coordinate system based on the display scale is unexpected and it is difficult to adapt existing applications to the proposed API.
The new approach is to provide the coordinate systems that people expect, but provide additional information that will help applications properly handle high DPI situations.
The concepts needed for high DPI support are documented in README-highdpi.md. An example of automatically adapting the content to display scale changes can be found in SDL_test_common.c, where auto_scale_content is checked.
Also, the SDL_WINDOW_ALLOW_HIGHDPI window flag has been replaced by the SDL_HINT_VIDEO_ENABLE_HIGH_PIXEL_DENSITY hint.

It turns out that screen coordinates were confusing people, thinking that meant pixels, when instead they are virtual coordinates; device independent units defined as pixels scaled by the display scale. We'll use the term "points" for this going forward, to reduce confusion.
- SDL_AudioCVT is gone, even internally.
- libsamplerate is gone (I suspect our resampler is finally Good Enough).
- Cleanups and improvements to audio conversion interfaces.
- SDL_AudioStream can change its input/output format/rate/channels on the fly!
It turns out there's a race condition on X11 where the window could be placed by the window manager while being placed by the application, so we need to have the initial position available at window creation.
