You can't do blending directly in PQ space, which means you have to create a scene render target in linear space and use shaders to convert PQ texture data to linear, etc. All of this is out of scope for the SDL 2D renderer at the moment.
Testing: Modified testgeometry to clear the background to 0.5 and then changed the triangle color to 0.5, and verified that they were the same color when using the D3D11 renderer.
This allows color operations to happen in linear space between sRGB input and sRGB output. This is currently supported on the direct3d11, direct3d12 and opengl renderers.
This is a good resource on blending in linear space vs sRGB space:

Also added testcolorspace to verify colorspace changes
The drawing uses the origin of the viewport as the coordinate origin, so we only need to clip against the size of the viewport.
Also added a unit test to catch this case in the future
SDL window size, state, and position functions have been considered immediate, with their effects assuming to have taken effect upon successful return of the function. However, several windowing systems handle these requests asynchronously, resulting in the functions blocking until the changes have taken effect, potentially for long periods of time. Additionally, some windowing systems treat these as requests, and can potentially deny or fulfill the request in a manner differently than the application expects, such as not allowing a window to be positioned or sized beyond desktop borders, prohibiting fullscreen, and so on.
With these changes, applications can make requests of the window manager that do not block, with the understanding that an associated event will be sent if the request is fulfilled. Currently, size, position, maximize, minimize, and fullscreen calls are handled as asynchronous requests, with events being returned if the request is honored. If the application requires that the change take effect immediately, it can call the new SDL_SyncWindow function, which will attempt to block until the request is fulfilled, or some arbitrary timeout period elapses, the duration of which depends not only on the windowing system, but on the operation requested as well (e.g. a 100ms timeout is fine for most X11 events, but maximizing a window can take considerably longer for some reason). There is also a new hint 'SDL_VIDEO_SYNC_ALL_WINDOW_OPS' that will mimic the old behavior by synchronizing after every window operation with, again, the understanding that using this may result in the associated calls blocking for a relatively long period.
The deferred model also results in the window size and position getters not reporting false coordinates anymore, as they only forward what the window manager reports vs allowing applications to set arbitrary values, and fullscreen enter/leave events that were initiated via the window manager update the window state appropriately, where they didn't before.
Care was taken to ensure that order of operations is maintained, and that requests are not ignored or dropped. This does require some implicit internal synchronization in the various backends if many requests are made in a short period, as some state and behavior depends on other bits of state that need to be known at that particular point in time, but this isn't something that typical applications will hit, unless they are sending a lot of window state in a short time as the tests do.
The automated tests developed to test the previous behavior also resulted in previously undefined behavior being defined and normalized across platforms, particularly when it comes to the sizing and positioning of windows when they are in a fixed-size state, such as maximized or fullscreen. Size and position requests made when the window is not in a movable or resizable state will be deferred until it can be applied, so no requests are lost. These changes fix another long-standing issue with renderers recreating maximized windows, where the original non-maximized size was lost, resulting in the window being restored to the wrong size. All automated video tests pass across all platforms.
Overall, the "make a request/get an event" model better reflects how most windowing systems work, and some backends avoid spending significant time blocking while waiting for operations to complete.
At the earliest place, immediatly after driverdata is set.
(Doing it in SDL_render.c, after creation, would be too late, because there're renderers that already use/change those values in the CreateRender() function).
This means the allocator's caller doesn't need to use SDL_OutOfMemory directly
if the allocation fails.
This applies to the usual allocators: SDL_malloc, SDL_calloc, SDL_realloc
(all of these regardless of if the app supplied a custom allocator or we're
using system malloc() or an internal copy of dlmalloc under the hood),
SDL_aligned_alloc, SDL_small_alloc, SDL_strdup, SDL_asprintf, SDL_wcsdup...
probably others. If it returns something you can pass to SDL_free, it should
work.
The caller might still need to use SDL_OutOfMemory if something that wasn't
SDL allocated the memory: operator new in C++ code, Objective-C's alloc
message, win32 GlobalAlloc, etc.
Fixes#8642.
This uses the same `SDL_VerbNoun` format as the rest of SDL3, and also
adds stronger effort to invalidate cached state in the backend, so cooperation
improves with apps that are using lowlevel rendering APIs directly.
Fixes#367.
Otherwise, a massive line might generate gigabytes worth of points to render,
which the backend would simply throw away anyhow.
Fixes#8113.
