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.
Fixes#7047

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.

libdecor plugins can change the min/max window size values internally to enforce a minimum window size, and errors and crashes can result if the window size is below the internal limit.
On versions of libdecor >= 0.1.1, the minimum width and height can be queried and the minimum required window size will be enforced. The application requested window size is still respected, however, the actual window may be slightly larger than the drawable area to accommodate the required libdecor minimum size.
On version 0.1.0 of libdecor, which lacks the function to retrieve the minimum size, the internal limits are overridden before committing a frame, so that the internal limits always match the window size as a workaround, even if the window is technically smaller than the plugin would normally allow.

The annotations have been added to SDL_mutex.h and have been made public so applications can enable this for their own code.
Clang assumes that locking and unlocking can't fail, but SDL has the concept of a NULL mutex, so the mutex functions have been changed not to report errors if a mutex hasn't been initialized. We do have mutexes that might be accessed when they are NULL, notably in the event system, so this is an important change.
This commit cleans up a bunch of rare race conditions in the joystick and game controller code so now everything should be completely protected by the joystick lock.
To test this, change the compiler to "clang -Wthread-safety -Werror=thread-safety -DSDL_THREAD_SAFETY_ANALYSIS"
