Full object validation was always done before this hint and there are a number of shipping products that relied on this, so don't change it by default.
SDL supports the following use cases:
* Normal operation with fast parameter checks (default):
SDL_SetHint(SDL_HINT_INVALID_PARAM_CHECKS, "1");
* Object parameters are checked for use-after-free issues:
SDL_SetHint(SDL_HINT_INVALID_PARAM_CHECKS, "2");
* Enable full validation, plus assert on invalid parameters:
#define SDL_ASSERT_INVALID_PARAMS
* Disable all parameter validation:
#define SDL_DISABLE_INVALID_PARAMS
"This thing allows to do something" is not really grammatically correct.
The closest rephrasing would be "allows one to do something" or "allows
the user to do something", but I think the passive voice reads more
naturally here.

This still logs backend choices, but we might use it for other things. For
example, what Android device is being used, or all the devices we enumerated,
etc.
Ideally this eventually logs all the stuff we often have to ask followup
questions about.
Windows can get in a state when it stops reporting raw input events for game controllers until reboot.
The downside of this change is that we lose support for trigger rumble and are limited to 4 controllers again, but if that's important for your application you can use SDL_SetHint(SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_RAWINPUT, true) to enable this functionality.

This new driver is based on official documentation released by Microsoft in
September, though it still lacks several important features, notably the
Security handshake for wireless dongles and audio support. It is, however, more
reliable and extensible than the old driver.
These changes enable the Logitech G29 wheel to run on hidapi with both SDL_Joystick and SDL_Haptic interfaces.
While it is already possible to use the wheel on Linux in WINE + SDL2 thanks to the in-tree evdev driver as well as new-lg4ff, these set of changes allow the G29 to be used with WINE under MacOS and FreeBSD
These wheels should also be supported, but I can only test them from G29's compat modes: G27, G25, DFGT, DFP, DFEX
Haptic and led support are ported from https://github.com/berarma/new-lg4ff
