This patch fixes two issues with pausing and resuming the Android
activity when an external graphics context[1] is used:
1. When pausing, don't wait for the EGL context to be backed up if a
context wasn't created in the first place.
2. When resuming, don't recreate the EGL surface unless one was
requested by the user when originally creating the window.
[1] SDL_PROP_WINDOW_CREATE_EXTERNAL_GRAPHICS_CONTEXT_BOOLEAN
When the native window or surface backing the SDL window changes, e.g.,
when the activity is resumed, we should also update the corresponding
window pointer properties (SDL_PROP_WINDOW_ANDROID_{WINDOW,SURFACE}
_POINTER) so that they remain in sync.
Removed duplicate hints SDL_HINT_APP_NAME, SDL_HINT_APP_ID, and
SDL_HINT_AUDIO_DEVICE_APP_NAME.
Wired up a few things to use the metadata; more to come!

It was intended to make the API easier to use, but various automatic garbage collection all had flaws, and making the application periodically clean up temporary memory added cognitive load to using the API, and in many cases was it was difficult to restructure threaded code to handle this.
So, we're largely going back to the original system, where the API returns allocated results and you free them.
In addition, to solve the problems we originally wanted temporary memory for:
* Short strings with a finite count, like device names, get stored in a per-thread string pool.
* Events continue to use temporary memory internally, which is cleaned up on the next event processing cycle.
This change also decouples the pause/resume handling from the video subsystem on Android, so applications that don't use SDL for video can get application life cycle events.
The semantics for the life cycle events are that they need to be handled in an event watch callback, and once they've been delivered, the application will block until it's been resumed. SDL_HINT_ANDROID_BLOCK_ON_PAUSE can be used to control that behavior, and if that's set to "0", then the application will continue to run in the background at low CPU usage until being resumed or stopped.
SDL_HINT_ANDROID_BLOCK_ON_PAUSE_PAUSEAUDIO has been removed, and the audio will be paused when the application is paused.

This was done to SDL_DisplayMode for consistency with SDL_Surface and gives it a type so we don't have to do casts in SDL code.
I considered switching to an ID and hashing the driver data, etc. but all of that involved a lot of internal code churn and this solution gives us flexibility in how we handle this in the future.
After consideration, I made this renaming global across the project, for consistency.

Any parameters (key/value pairs after the '?' in a URL) that have a keyname
that starts with `SDL_` will be put into Emscripten's environment variable
emulation table at startup, before SDL_main runs.
This lets users set hints the same way they might set them from a shell's
command line on a desktop platform:
For example:
`https://example.com/my_sdl3_application.html?SDL_RENDER_DRIVER=software`
Fixes#10154.
The new function includes the cursor position so IME UI elements can be placed relative to the cursor, as well as having the whole text area available so on-screen keyboards can avoid it.
SDL_StartTextInput(), SDL_StopTextInput(), SDL_TextInputActive(), SDL_ClearComposition(), and SDL_SetTextInputRect() all now take a window parameter.
This change also fixes IME candidate positioning when SDL_SetTextInputRect() is called before SDL_StartTextInput(), as is recommended in the documentation.
