Downstream distributors can use this to mark a version with their
preferred version information, like a Linux distribution package version
or the Steam revision it was built to be bundled into, or just to mark
it with the vendor it was built by or the environment it's intended to
be used in.
For instance, in Debian I'd use this by configuring with:
--enable-vendor-info="${DEB_VENDOR} ${DEB_VERSION}"
to get a SDL_REVISION like:
release-2.24.1-0-ga1d1946dc (Debian 2.24.1+dfsg-2)
which gives a Debian user enough information to track down the patches
and build-time configuration that were used for package revision 2.
In Autotools and CMake, this is a configure-time option like any other,
and will go into both SDL_REVISION (via SDL_revision.h) and
SDL_GetRevision().
In other build systems (MSVC, Xcode, etc.), defining the
SDL_VENDOR_INFO macro will get it into the output of SDL_GetRevision(),
although not SDL_REVISION.

Instead of using a URL and git sha1, this uses `git describe` to
describe the version relative to the nearest previous git tag, which
gives a better indication of whether this is a release, a prerelease,
a slightly patched prerelease, or a long way after the last release
during active development.
This serves two purposes: it makes those APIs more informative, and it
also puts this information into the binary in a form that is easy to
screen-scrape using strings(1). For instance, if the bundled version of
SDL in a game has this, we can see at a glance what version it is.
It's also shorter than using the web address of the origin git
repository and the full git commit sha1.
Also write the computed version into a file ./VERSION in `make dist`
tarballs, so that when we build from a tarball on a system that doesn't
have git available, we still get the version details.
For the Perforce code path in showrev.sh, output the version number
followed by the Perforce revision, in a format reminiscent of
`git describe` (with p instead of g to indicate Perforce).
For the code path with no VCS available at all, put a suffix on the
version number to indicate that this is just a guess (we can't know
whether this SDL version is actually a git snapshot or has been
patched locally or similar).

- SDL_LoadObject: upon failure, strip the .dll extension and retry,
but only if module name has no path.
- SDL_LoadFunction: upon failure, retry with an underscore prepended,
e.g. for gcc-built dlls.
- strlcpy was passed a wrong buffer length parameter. has worked so
far by luck.
- use memcpy instead of strlcpy for simplicity.
- 'append' has been a typo: should be 'prepend'.
Otherwise the thread might block for a long time (more than 10 seconds!).
It's not clear to me why this happens, or why its safe to do this with a
resource that's still in use, but we have, until recently, always
disposed of the AudioQueue first, so changing back is probably okay.
Also changed the disposal to allow in-flight buffers to reach hardware;
otherwise you lose the last little bit of audio that's already been queued
but not played, which you can hear clearly in the loopwave test program.
Fixes#6377.
Disabling RAWINPUT on Windows 10 causes these issues:
* All Xbox controllers are named "XInput Controller".
* Trigger rumble no longer works.
* "XInput Controllers" are now also listed as separate haptic devices
It's only needed to support more than 4 Xbox controllers, and adds significant complexity to the joystick processing, and we regularly get bugs from people who aren't using an SDL window who need to turn on SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_THREAD.
Replace instances of fprintf(stderr, ...) with SDL_SetError(), replace C++ comments with C style, use a uniform format for multi-line comments, and remove unused headers as poll and select aren't used in this file (the SDL function which calls them is used instead).
libdecor_dispatch() needs to be called, as libdecor plugins might do some required internal processing within, however care must be taken to avoid double-blocking in the case of a timeout, which can occur if libdecor_dispatch() and the SDL event processing both work on the main Wayland queue. Additionally, assumptions that libdecor will always dispatch the main queue or not process zero-length queues (can occur if a wait is interrupted by the application queueing an event) should not be made, as this behavior is outside the control of SDL and can change.
SDL handles polling for Wayland events and then calls libdecor to do its internal processing and dispatch. If libdecor operates on the main queue, it will dispatch the queued events and the additional wl_display_dispatch_pending() call will be a NOP. If a libdecor plugin uses its own, separate queue, then the wl_display_dispatch_pending() call will ensure that the main queue is always dispatched.
Fixes battery level dropping to empty with the Qanba Drone Arcade Stick.
It looks like we might also be able to skip the check for all third party controllers, but I think this is the right thing to do for Sony controllers as well.
