This is done such that we can disable LTO for these 2 functions when
building with MSVC.
This is due to a limitation of Link Time Code Generation (LTCG).
Code generation might generate a new reference to memset after linking
has started. The LTCG must make assumptions about where memset is
defined which is normally the C runtime.
On filesystems with large inode numbers, such as overlayfs, attempting
to stat() a file on a 32-bit system using legacy syscalls can fail
with EOVERFLOW. If we opt-in to more modern "large file support"
syscalls, then source code references to functions like stat() are
transparently replaced with ABIs that support large file sizes and
inode numbers, such as stat64().
This cannot safely be done globally by Linux distributions, because
some libraries expose types like `off_t` or `struct stat` in their
ABI, meaning that enabling large file support would be an incompatible
change that would cause crashes. However, SDL appears to be careful to
avoid these types in header files, so it should be OK to enable this.

Change Cocoa SDL_VideoData and SDL_WindowData implementations from C structs to Objective-C objects, since bridging between C and ObjC is easier that way.
This makes it more convenient to compile them alongside SDL, install
them in an optional package and use them as smoke-tests or diagnostic
tools. The default installation directory is taken from GNOME's
installed-tests, which seems as good a convention as any other:

In Autotools, these are run by `make -C ${builddir}/test check`.
In CMake, they're run by `make -C ${builddir} test` or
`ninja -C ${builddir} test` or `ctest --test-dir ${builddir}`.

If we're strict about applying something resembling semantic versioning
to the "marketing" version number, then we can mechanically generate
the ABI version from it.
This limits the range of valid micro versions (patchlevels) to 0-99.

For stable releases, this gives us the ability to make bugfix-only point
releases such as 2.24.1 if we want to, and distinguish between them
programmatically. For example, this ability could have been useful after
2.0.16 to fix Xwayland regressions, and after 2.0.18 to fix event loop
regressions.
For development releases, this gives us the ability to make multiple
prereleases during the same feature cycle, and distinguish between them
programmatically. For example, this would have been useful during 2.0.22
development, which went through three prereleases before reaching the
final release.

It looks as though something in the test subproject "leaks" into the
main build system, causing us to try to install ${builddir}/test/sdl2.pc
instead of the correct ${builddir}/sdl2.pc. Moving the tests subproject
further down avoids this.
