This adds compile-time support for multiple platforms and runtime
detection of them. Window system related platform functions are now
called from shared code via the function pointer struct _GLFWplatform.
The timer, thread and module loading platform functions are still called
directly by name and the implementation chosen at link-time. These
functions are the same for any backend on a given OS, including the Null
backend.
The platforms are now enabled via CMake dependent options following the
GLFW_BUILD_<platform> pattern instead of a mix of automagic and ad-hoc
option names. There is no longer any option for the Null backend as it
is now always enabled.
Much of the struct stitching work in platform.h was based on an earlier
experimental branch for runtime platform selection by @ronchaine.
Every platform function related to windows, contexts, monitors, input,
event processing and Vulkan have been renamed so that multiple sets of
them can exist without colliding. Calls to these are now routed through
the _glfw.platform struct member. These changes makes up most of this
commit.
For Wayland and X11 the client library loading and display creation is
used to detect a running compositor/server. The XDG_SESSION_TYPE
environment variable is ignored for now, as X11 is still by far the more
complete implementation.

This adds the glfwInitAllocator function for specifying a custom memory
allocator to use instead of the C runtime library.
The allocator is a struct of type GLFWallocator with fields
corresponding to malloc, realloc and free, while the internal API
corresponds to calloc, realloc and free.
Heap allocation calls are filtered before reaching the user-provided
functions, so deallocation of NULL and allocations of zero bytes are not
passed on, reallocating NULL is transformed into an allocation and
reallocating to size zero is transformed into deallocation.
The clearing of a new block to zero is performed by the internal
calloc-like function.

This makes joystick support initialize the first time a joystick
function is called, including those gamepad functions that are layered
on top of joystick functions.

The documentation for window hints had several features that had not
been carried over to init hints.
This also removes listing glfwInitHint for each hint, which was an
artifact of the removal of glfwInitHintString.
This moves the remaining bits of NSApplication initialization into
_glfwPlatformInit. As a side-effect of this, any command-line program
initializing GLFW will get a menu bar, which is not ideal.
If this has happened to you and a bisect led you here, please see the
GLFW_COCOA_MENUBAR init hint introduced in GLFW 3.3.
If this patch is a terrible idea, please get in touch in the 3.4 release
timeframe.
This is a replacement for 6e6805000a,
which attempts to preserve the existing menu bar creation behavior for
the 3.3-stable branch.
Fixes#1649.
This moves the buttons-as-hats logic to shared code and adds the
GLFW_JOYSTICK_HAT_BUTTONS input mode as a way to disable this legacy
behavior.
Fixes#889.
Fixed incorrect error types. Added missing error string prefixes.
Removed some invalid or superfluous error emissions. Clarified some
error strings. Joined error string lines to aid grep. Replaced some
generic error strings with specific ones. Documentation work.
Fixes#450.
