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 adds the GLFW_MOUSE_PASSTHROUGH window hint and attribute for
controlling whether mouse input passes through the window to whatever
window is behind it.

This adds GLFW_CONTEXT_DEBUG as a preferred alias for
the GLFW_OPENGL_DEBUG_CONTEXT window hint, as debug contexts are
defined for both OpenGL and OpenGL ES.

This renames 'raw input' to 'raw mouse motion' as there are other kinds
of raw input. The update path is restructured to avoid reinitializing
all of disabled cursor mode. Modification of shared state is moved out
into shared code. Raw mouse motion is disabled by default for
compatibility.

This adds the GLFW_SCALE_TO_MONITOR window hint for automatically
resizing the content area of a window to the requested size times the
monitor content scale each time it is placed on a new monitor. This
only applies to windowed mode windows and includes the initial placement
at window creation.
This hint only has an effect on platforms where screen coordinates and
pixels always map 1:1 such as Windows and X11. Platforms like macOS
instead change the resolution of the framebuffer independently of the
window size.

glfwShowWindow gives the specified window input focus in addition to
making it visible.
