Consolidate the X11 WM_CLASS and Wayland app ID envvars

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.
