New features
Unlimited mouse buttons
GLFW now has an input mode which allows an unlimited number of mouse buttons to be reported by the mouse buttton callback, rather than just the associated [mouse button tokens](@ref buttons). This allows using mouse buttons with values over 8. For compatibility with older versions, the @ref GLFW_UNLIMITED_MOUSE_BUTTONS input mode needs to be set to make use of this.
EGL config native access function
GLFW now provides the @ref glfwGetEGLConfig native access function for querying
the EGLConfig
of a window that has a EGLSurface
.
GLXFBConfig native access function
GLFW now provides the @ref glfwGetGLXFBConfig native access function for
querying the GLXFBConfig
of a window that has a GLXWindow

Removals
Windows XP and Vista support has been removed
Support for Windows XP and Vista has been removed. Windows XP has been out of extended support since 2014.
Original MinGW support has been removed
Support for the now unmaintained original MinGW distribution has been removed.
