My simplification of the conditions for including SDL_main_impl.h
had one problem: I forgot that SDL_main_impl.h must be included
even on Android when SDL_MAIN_USE_CALLBACKS is used, because then a
SDL_main() function that makes sure the callbacks get called is needed,
and that function is implemented in SDL_main_impl.h
But OTOH, even when SDL_MAIN_USE_CALLBACKS is used, SDL_main_impl.h
should not implement a standard `int main(...)` function on Android
(because there the SDL-using native code is compiled as a library and
the entry point is in SDLActivity.java, which calls SDL_main()
in said library).
So the check for platforms that don't have *any* native main function
but just SDL_main() called from the outside should be handled in
SDL_main_impl.h, so both the normal and the callback case can avoid
generating a standard main() in the same way.
To do this, SDL_MAIN_EXPORTED is defined for platforms like Android,
where the real entry point (main() function) is outside of the code
that uses SDL, so
- SDL_main() must be visibly exported with SDL_DECLSPEC, so the outside
code can call it
- SDL_main_impl.h must not implement a "real" main() function
Another small change based on this is defining SDLMAIN_DECLSPEC
at a more general place.
If another platform like Android (where the entry point is somewhere
else entirely, possibly implemented in a different programming language)
turns up, defining SDL_MAIN_NEEDED (so the users main() is renamed
to SDL_main()) and SDL_MAIN_EXPORTED should be all that's needed on the
SDL_main.h side - and if not then at least the implementation is
cleaner and clearer now, IMHO.

SDL_DelayNS() now passes through to the high precision OS delay function, and SDL_DelayPrecise() tries to busy wait to get as close as possible to the desired wait time.

This includes both wasm64 and wasm32 when addressing more than 2gb of memory.

(Manually cherry-picked from 3deb07ea395373204462130c1e062bc1f71fe060.)
If WinRT returns after all, or a similarly bad platforms turns up,
the code can still be found in the git history.
But keep in mind that it then will have to be added *before* the
#if ( defined(SDL_MAIN_USE_CALLBACKS) || defined(SDL_MAIN_NEEDED) ...
case for platforms that support plain C to work correctly
Basically all platforms where SDL_main.h renames main() to SDL_main()
use the platform-specific main() (or WinMain() or whatever)
implementations in SDL_main_impl.h - and that renaming is enabled with:
#if defined(SDL_MAIN_NEEDED) || defined(SDL_MAIN_AVAILABLE) \
|| defined(SDL_MAIN_USE_CALLBACKS)
#define main SDL_main
#endif
The only exception is Android, where main() *is* renamed, but
SDL_main_impl.h isn't used, because SDL_main() is called from Java.
So I think it's cleaner and less error-prone (for adding additional
platforms that need SDL_main() in the future), to use the same check
for including SDL_main_impl.h as is used for `#define main SDL_main`
and only list the exceptions (currently Android) there explicitly.
If new platforms like Android turn up, they can easily be added there
by inserting "|| defined(SDL_PLATFORM_WEIRDPLATFORM)" right next
to the Android check.
