SDL_GetGamepadAxis() is a SDL3-specific name: SDL2 calls gamepads
"game controllers".

It would be easy to assume that all APIs that reference
SDL_JOYSTICK_AXIS_MAX work the same way, but they do not: triggers
generally use the full signed 16-bit range in the lower-level joystick
API, but are normalized to be non-negative by the higher-level gamepad
API.
We also never said explicitly which direction is positive here.
Experimentally, it's right (X), down (Y), and pressed (triggers).

The ARM926EJ-S Technical Reference Manual states:
> You can only access CP15 registers with MRC and MCR instructions in a
> privileged mode. CDP, LDC, STC, MCRR, and MRRC instructions, and unprivileged
> MRC or MCR instructions to CP15 cause the Undefined instruction exception to
> be taken.
Furthermore, `MCR p15, 0, <Rd>, c7, c10, 5` (later called Data Memory Barrier)
is not specified for the ARM926. Thus, SDL should not use these cache
instructions on ARMv5.

Added support for getting the real controller info, as well as the function SDL_GameControllerGetSteamHandle() to get the Steam Input API handle, from the virtual gamepads provided by Steam.
Also added an event SDL_CONTROLLERSTEAMHANDLEUPDATED which is triggered when a controller's API handle changes, e.g. the controllers were reassigned slots in the Steam UI.

- check libiconv with a linkage test with iconv.h included
- check libc iconv with a linkage test with iconv.h included
and LIBICONV_PLUG defined (in case libiconv header is in
include path)
- add new configuration option to prefer iconv from libiconv,
if available, over the libc version, defaults to disabled:
SDL_LIBICONV for cmake, --enable-libiconv for autotools.
- change FreeBSD specific LIBICONV_PLUG define in SDL_iconv.c
to configuration result.
This can be used to work around issues where the Apple GCController driver doesn't work for some controllers but there's no way to know which GCController maps to which IOKit device.

On some system like MacBook Pro Intel with AMD card, asking for the default device will always return the AMD GPU.
This is not an issue for 99% of the case when the renderer context is here to provide the maximum performance level like for game.
However, for video application using GPU for 1 quad and 1 texture, using the discrete GPU for that lead to an important power consumption (4 to 8W), heat increase, and fan noise.
With this patch, I successfully amend ffplay to only use the integrated GPU (i.e. the Intel one), instead of the discrete GPU (i.e. the AMD one).
Fixes DPI awareness of testdrawchessboard (previously, the surface was
being created in points instead of pixels, resulting in the demo app
only drawing in a corner of the screen on High-DPI displays)
*_CreateWindowFramebuffer()/*_UpdateWindowFramebuffer(): are updated
to use SDL_GetWindowSizeInPixels instead of SDL_GetWindowSize() or
window->w/window->h.
Most of the _CreateWindowFramebuffer backends are untested except
for Windows.

Before this, the function could not be used on buffers,
as it would not account for the zero-termination unless
it was included in the input.
