It's too close the 3.2.0 release for an API change like this.
If/when we re-add these, some things for consideration:
* What use cases does this enable that aren't currently possible?
* What cross-platform API guarantees do we make about the availability of these events? e.g. do we try to simulate them where raw input isn't actually available?
* How is this different from the existing relative mode, and how do we clearly explain when you want these events vs wanting relative mode?
Notes from @expikr:
First observation: the reason I originally passed denominators instead of multipliers was because some rational values cannot be exactly represented by floats (e.g 1/120) so instead let the end-developer decide how to do the dividing themselves. It was the reason why it was using split values with an integer numerator to begin with, instead of having both as floats or even just normalize it in advance.
On the other hand, passing them as multipliers might have hypothetical uses for dynamically passing end-user controlled scaling in a transparent manner without coupling? (Though in that case why not just do that as additional fields appended to `motion` structs in an API-compatible layout?)
So it’s somewhat of a philosophical judgement of what this API of optional availability do we intend for it to present itself as:
- should it be a bit-perfect escape hatch with the absolute minimally-denominal abstraction over platform details just enough to be able to serve the full information (á la HIDPIAPI),
- or a renewed ergonomic API for splitting relative motion from cursor motion (in light of The Great Warping Purge) so that it is unburdened by legacy RelativeMode state machines, in which case it would be more appropriate to just call it `RELATIVE` instead of `RAW` and should be added alongside another new event purely for cursor events?
This alternate API stream was conceived in the context of preserving compatibility of the existing RelativeMode state machine by adding an escape hatch. So given the same context, my taste leans towards the former designation.
However, as The Great Warping Purge has made it potentially viable to do so, if I were allowed to break ABI by nuking the RelativeMode state machine entirely, I would prefer the latter designation unified as one of three separate components split from the old state machine, each independently controlled by platform-dependent availability without any state switching of a leaky melting pot:
- cursor visibility controls (if platform has cursor)
- cursor motion events (if platform has cursor)
- relative motion events (if the platform reports hardware motion)
This commit does the following:
- add logic in the `WM_MOUSEMOVE` case of the Window to conditionally call `WIN_UpdateClipCursor` upon receiving cursor motion if SDL is expecting the mouse to be clipped in some way (Fixes#7890)
- remove Windows-specific periodic refresh of cursor clipping and its `SDL_HINT_MOUSE_RELATIVE_CLIP_INTERVAL` hint (superceded by the above bullet point)
- streamline the processing logic within `WIN_UpdateClipCursor` for better readability of each branch, and avoid calling the Platform API until it is absolutely necessary.
- move `relative_mouse_center` field from Windows-specific per-window `SDL_WindowData` to the global `SDL_Mouse` struct, and the corresponding hint callbacks to `SDL_mouse.c` instead of `SDL_windowswindow.c`
It is not uncommon for clients to redundantly set the window size and position, either as a holdover from an SDL 1 port, when this was required, due to any window state change triggering a universal update function that sets all window state, even if unnecessary (e.g. always calling SDL_SetWindowSize(), even if the window is fullscreen), or due to the use of compatability layers. Historically, these clients expect that their behavior won't override the base window state, which is an assumption that the windowing changes in SDL 3 broke by caching size and position changes that can't be applied immediately.
This change drops size and position requests when the window is in the maximized and fullscreen states (fullscreen-desktop windows will be repositioned, but the non-fullscreen floating position will not be overwritten), which is behavior more in line with existing client assumptions, and should ease the porting process, as well as prevent annoying bugs when older software is run via sdl2-compat.
In the process of making these changes, pending window state has been moved to separate variables in the SDL_Window struct, as this fixes bugs regarding fullscreen display selection and centering windows immediately after resize on asynchronous platforms, which had issues due to pending state possibly being overwritten.
Currently, the rawinput thread incorrectly spreads the timestamps over idle time if the poll interval is less than 100ms, and abruptly switches to lumping all accumulated inputs to happen simultaneously if it exceeds 100ms.
This means that any game which implements retroactive event handling based on timestamps will jarringly snap between the two polar opposite extremes of incorrect behaviour.
This PR replaces the arbitrary 100ms threshold with logic based on measuring the idle start and end time.
If the thread idled for more than 125000 nanoseconds, it is considered to have not had any input in its queue before it entered idle, and the events are spread over the interval between thread wake-up and pump finish, with the final input aligned to the pump finish time.
If the thread idled for less than 125000 nanoseconds, it is considered to have events entered at some point between last pump finish and thread entering sleep, and the events are spread over the full pump-to-pump interval.
This fixes the following sequence:
* Press mouse button down
* Alt-tab away from the window
* Alt-tab back to the window
* Release mouse button

This patch modifies the clipboard handling so that when we receive an external
clipboard update, the suppported mime types are included in the SDL_ClipboarUpdate
event. The patch also introduces the owner field that allows to know if the update
is because we own the clipboard (internal update) or if it was an external update.
We require stdbool.h in the build environment, so we might as well use the plain bool type.
If your environment doesn't have stdbool.h, this simple replacement will suffice:
typedef signed char bool;
GameInput currently has a bug with keys stuck on focus change, and crashes on initialization on some systems, so we'll disable it until these issues are fixed.
Allow setting a parent/child relationship on toplevel windows, which allows raising sets of windows together, and allows child windows to always float above their parents.
Modal windows are now set by setting the parent, then toggling modal status, as the previous interface duplicated functionality now handled by SDL_SetWindowParent().
Most SDL functions used to indicate success or failure using an int return code. These functions have been changed to return SDL_bool.
Here is a coccinelle patch to change code that previously compared the return value to 0 and changes it to a boolean test:

This adds functions to query the keymap:
* SDL_GetCurrentKeymap()
* SDL_GetKeymapKeycode()
* SDL_GetKeymapScancode()
* SDL_ReleaseKeymap()
and these are distinct from the function to query the event keycode associated with a scancode, which might be affected by SDL_HINT_KEYCODE_OPTIONS.
Also added an SDL_bool parameter to SDL_GetKeyName() and SDL_GetKeyFromName() to enable upper case handling of the name.
