* dos: Some initial work.
* dos: Turn off buffer on stdio SDL_IOStreams.
Seeking breaks otherwise. We might be able to just fflush() before or seeking
instead?
* dos: Audio implementation using the Sound Blaster 16.
* dos: remove audio Pump interface.
Turns out DosBox-X was having trouble with the Sound Blaster or something;
standard DosBox works correctly directly from the interrupt handler, and
without doubling the buffer size.
* dos: just dump and restore the stdio buffer when seeking.
This is MUCH faster than just leaving buffering disabled, and also works
around getting bogus reads after an fseek. SDL_LoadWAV on test/sample.wav
no longer takes several seconds to finish, and comes up with the correct
data.
I wonder if we're triggering this in LoadWAV because we're malloc'ing data
between seeks/reads, and it's causing the djgpp transfer buffer to change. Or
maybe the Fat DS trick is confusing it? I don't know, I haven't had time to
debug it, it might just be a legit libc bug in djgpp too, for all I know.
* dos: Protect audio device "thread" iterations when streams are locked.
This uses an old trick we used in SDL 1.2 for MacOS Classic, which did its
audio callback in a hardware interrupt. If the audio is locked when the
interrupt fires, make a note of it and return immediately. When the lock is
released, if the interrupt has been fired, run the audio device iteration
right then.
Since there isn't a big device lock in SDL3 (available to the app, at least),
this keeps a counter of when any SDL_AudioStream is locked, which is probably
good enough.
* dos: Implemented initial video subsystem.
This uses VESA interfaces to manage the display and works with the software
renderer.
Events aren't hooked up yet, so prepare to close DosBox on each run. :)
* dos: Whoops, forgot to add these to revision control. Core and Main support.
* dos: Wired up basic filesystem support.
This gets most of the rendering examples, which use SDL_GetBasePath() to
find textures to load, working.
* dos: Fixed compiler warning.
* dos: Initial mouse support!
* dos: Move interrupt hooking code into core/dos.
* dos: Initial keyboard support!
* dos: Use a simple ring buffer for keyboard events.
Of course Quake 1 solved this better, haha. It's smart: less memory, dirt
simple, and you don't even have to worry about synchronizing with the
interrupt handler, because it's safe for both sides no matter when an
interrupt fires.
* ci: add djgpp job
[sdl-ci-filter djgpp]
[sdl-ci-artifacts]
* dos: Fix build issues after rebase onto current main
- SDL_runapp.c: Add SDL_PLATFORM_DOS to the exclusion list so the
generic
SDL_RunApp() is disabled when the DOS-specific one is compiled.
- SDL.c: Exclude SDL_Gtk_Quit() on DOS. DJGPP defines __unix__ which
sets
SDL_PLATFORM_UNIX, but DOS has no GTK/display server. The GTK source
is not compiled (CMake UNIX is false for DOS) so this was a link
error.
- sdlplatform.cmake: Add DOS case to SDL_DetectCMakePlatform so the
platform is properly detected from CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME=DOS.
- i586-pc-msdosdjgpp.cmake: Add i386-pc-msdosdjgpp-gcc as a fallback
compiler name, since some DJGPP toolchain builds use the i386 prefix.

Hz.
Silence stale DMA buffer halves to prevent stutter during load.

This PR modifies the Emscripten joystick backend to detect the user's OS and store its ID in the GUID, because different OSes might need different mappings for the same controllers.
I'm not sure if different browsers on the same OS can also have different mappings, but if they can, browser detection can be added to the GUID too if needed.
This PR also makes the GUID use `SDL_HARDWARE_BUS_USB` instead of `SDL_HARDWARE_BUS_UNKNOWN`, similarly to how Android and MFI backends always use `SDL_HARDWARE_BUS_BLUETOOTH` and GameInput, XInput, and RawInput backends always use `SDL_HARDWARE_BUS_USB`.
This PR maps buttons 7 and 8 to paddles 2 (left) and 1 (right) respectively, and it also duplicates the mapping but for crc 0x2004, since the CRC of this controller changes if it was hotplugged.
navigator.getGamepads() can return null for a slot if the gamepad
disconnects between the gamepadconnected event and the proxied
MAIN_THREAD_EM_ASM_INT call. This causes a TypeError when accessing
gamepad.id. Add null guards matching the pattern already used in
EMSCRIPTEN_JoystickOpen and EMSCRIPTEN_JoystickRumble.
The three EM_JS functions (SDL_GetEmscriptenJoystickVendor,
SDL_GetEmscriptenJoystickProduct, SDL_IsEmscriptenJoystickXInput)
call navigator.getGamepads() which is only available on the main
browser thread. With PROXY_TO_PTHREAD, the joystick callbacks are
dispatched to a worker where the Gamepad API is not available,
causing a TypeError.
Convert these from EM_JS to static functions using
MAIN_THREAD_EM_ASM_INT, which proxies the JavaScript execution to
the main browser thread. This matches the pattern already used by
other navigator.getGamepads() calls in the same file.
Added vids for a variety of xbox 360 devices, mostly for linux use.
Corrected wheel vid and pid being flagged as unknown. Internally, when XUSB is building vid and pids for wireless devices, it assigns 0x02a1 for devices with subtype 1 and 0x02a2 for devices with subtype 2, which are wheels.
Some of these vids and pids do rely on the following patch being merged into the linux kernel, as I have overhauled how VID and PIDs are handled there for wireless devices.

Also added some lists for guitar and drum devices, so we can set controller types correctly for those controllers.
Technically we only want to do this for controllers that are opened, but we don't have a way to match up controllers using other APIs with individual GCControllers.
This PR makes the GameInput joystick backend ignore non-gamepad controllers if DirectInput or XInput backends are enabled. This is done to prevent possible bugs and/or regressions.
This PR includes small improvements to the GameInput joystick backend:
- Device subtypes
- Compatibility with DirectInput joystick mappings (if the controller is not a gamepad, i.e. `GAMEINPUT_InternalIsGamepad()` returns `false`)
- Fallback to DirectInput/XInput for currently unsupported devices (force feedback ones and the ones that are neither gamepads nor controllers, I'm not sure if that's possible, but maybe racing wheels and other device subtypes would count?)
Read capabilities when using xinput controllers via the libusb backend
This gives us access to the subtype on linux and macOS, and gives us a lot of data we can use for handling more detailed device types when I look into a unified api for exposing instrument data later.
PS4/5 controllers put device specific data into a specific region in the report, so we have to extract it separately.
No known guitars use the right stick on the guitar, so to keep things working similarly to PS3, i have opted to map whammy and tilt the same way as the PS3 rb guitars.
