Add libsdl3

#6156

I took the libsdl package and removed all deprecated stuff, I may have missed some things though.

Altering 2022 MSVC CI maybe would help, though I do not understand exactly how this change should look like.

 windows:
    runs-on: windows-2025

Either swapping win SDK ver either swapping ninja ver helped them as well it seems, what is really confusing to understand what was exactly a solution.

on_load(function (package)
    if package:is_plat("windows") then
        package:add("deps", "ninja")
        package:set("policy", "package.cmake_generator.ninja", true)
    end

Maybe we miss UniformTypeIdentifiers framework for Macos? Although I'm already confused seeing brew::sdl3 does it really exist?

(It's presence so rarely)

I don't think it's the best way to fix this since some users will have 2022 CI as well.

if the new package name is libsdl3, wouldn't it be logical to name the "old" one libsdl2 instead of libsdl ?

[SirLynix]

Yes indeed, the next step is to rename libsdl to libsdl2 and keep a libsdl package using libsdl2 as a base, like this:

package("libsdl")
    set_base("libsdl2")

    on_load(function (package)
        wprint("libsdl package has been renamed to libsdl2 following the release of SDL3 which is also available under the name libsdl3.${clear}")
    end)

I don't do linux development, but is there a reason why these are enabled by default on that platform? I thought you could develop a libsdl3 application without these?

[SirLynix]

One of the main feature of SDL (and reason people use it) is input and window management, which need x11/wayland to work.
It's very rare to use libsdl without these

[qudix]

I'm always wary about defaults being enabled because you can't really take it back later. Even if it's rare, minimal dependencies by default should still be a consideration.

[SirLynix]

I understand, but libsdl is a bit special, it only requires headers to build as it doesn't link x11 nor wayland, it loads them manually (dlopen/dlsym) at runtime only if they're available.

A good default for libsdl is to build it with as many deps as possible for this reason

[SirLynix]

cross and linux ARM64 fail because of wayland not supporting cross-building at the moment (because of wayland-scanner), I think this should be addressed. I'm disabling wayland by default for now on cross-platforms
