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.

NSApp setActivationPolicy: was being called too soon when the app was
not bundled and launched from the command line.
This fix is based on #1802 by @richardwilkes.

Many years ago this value was changed from F13 to Print Screen with
1ae9ce1e0a. However, this was later
reverted to F13 with 5759d0fdf2.
This changes it back to Print Screen for consistency with other
platforms.

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.

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.
If the application is not linked against the Vulkan loader and relies on
a third-party loader library or glfwGetInstanceProcAddress, then our
call to dlopen will fail without a custom dyld environment variable.
This adds a fallback of looking in the directory of the main executable,
which matches the bundle structure recommended by the Vulkan SDK, making
that finally work out of the box for fully dynamic loading.
Polling the event queue before NSApp had been allowed to finish
launching, in our case by starting our self-terminating run loop,
triggered an assertion inside NSApplication.
This fix, which makes all event processing functions capable of starting
it, makes that assertion less likely.
A more Cocoa-friendly fix would be to finish launching NSApp during
glfwInit and let people annoyed by the menu bar disabled it with
GLFW_COCOA_MENUBAR. That may not be suitable for 3.3-stable, though.
Fixes#1543.
This is another small step towards having GLFW play nice with other
toolkits sharing the same process, including AppKit.
Any macOS platform function that touches Cocoa must now wrap itself in
an autoreleasepool block.
Since GLFW no longer provides an autoreleasepool outside of its
functions, THIS MAY BREAK EXISTING CODE MIXING GLFW AND COCOA. Sorry!
Please add your own autoreleasepool blocks as needed.
Fixes#1107.
Closes#1114.
The application delegate needs to be set at init to receive monitor
events before window creation. Menu creation is moved to
applicationWillFinishLaunching: to play nicer with other toolkits in the
same process.
Related to #1317.
This removes the GLFW NSApplication subclass as a step towards better
coexistence with other libraries that touch Cocoa.
This moves application object creation to platform init to allow event
processing before window creation.

When cursor isn't in normal mode and should be hidden, use [NSCursor hide]
method instead of setting it to blank image. This should prevent
situations when hidden cursor becomes visible after system notification
was shown.

Look, a can of worms! I wonder what's inside.
This adds the first platform specific window hint, transforming
a compile-time option to a run-time per-window one.
As noted in the documentation for NSDistributedNotificationCenter,
(under the Discussion heading) before an observer is deallocated a call
should be made to removeObserver: in order to ensure that the listener
is correctly removed from all observation pools.
Fixes#817.
Closes#826.
The menu bar for non-bundled applications did not become visible until
it had lost and regained focus. This is fixed (somehow) by letting the
NSApplication run loop start and stop.
