Document SDL_VERSIONNUM as able to encode larger minor versions
Now that we've said this will be removed from SDL 3, we're free to use any encoding that is compatible with existing SDL versions and will still compare correctly for all SDL 2 version numbers. This allows the SDL 2 minor version to go beyond 1 digit, limited only by the size of SDL_version.minor (which is 8 bits), making the largest possible version number 2.255.99. The patchlevel (micro version) is still limited to 2 digits. Signed-off-by: Simon McVittie <smcv@collabora.com>
