As it is, SDL2's built-in config on macOS for Metal excludes Apple Silicon. This is due to thinking that the 64-bit Mac platform would always be x86_64. My patch fixes this by using the catch-all of 64-bit platforms.

This patch adds support to the GameController framework on macOS Big Sur and later, adding support for MFi controllers as well as rumble support for PS4 and Xbox One. There is some code to make sure that the IOKit joystick handler doesn't include two controllers at once.
While the GameController framework is present in earlier versions of macOS, there was no public, approved way of checking if a specific IOHIDDevice is a controller that GameController could handle. This was changed in Big Sur.
The configure/cmake scripts were checking for these functions but we didn't
have the SDL_config.h.* pieces in place. The other config headers are best
guesses.

Current code, search paths, and error messages are written to only consider MoltenVK on macOS as a Vulkan Portability implementation. It's not the only implementation available to the users. gfx-portability [1] has been shown to run a number of titles well, including Dota2, Dolphin Emulator, and vkQuake3, often out-performing MoltenVK in frame rate and stability (see Dolphin benchmark [2]).
There is no reason for SDL to be that specific, it's not using any MVK-specific functions other than the WSI initialization ("VK_MVK_macos_surface"). gfx-portability exposes this extension as well, and a more generic WSI extension is in process. It would be good if SDL was written in a more generic way that expect a Vulkan Portability library as opposed to MoltenVK specifically.

This isn't complete, but is enough to run testsprite2. It's currently
Mac-only; with a little work to figure out how to properly glue in a Metal
layer to a UIView, this will likely work on iOS, too.
This is only wired up to the configure script right now, and disabled by
default. CMake and Xcode still need their bits filled in as appropriate.

Seems latest google angle library successfully built & tested under macOS'es.

We need to use GLES2 to implement true cross-platform code.

When RWops seeks with fseek or fseeko it uses the types long or off_t which can be 32 bits on some platforms. stdio_seek does not check if the 64-bit integer for the offset fits into a 32-bit integer. Offsets equal or larger than 2 GiB will have implementation-defined behavior and failure states would be very confusing to debug.
The attached patch adds range checking by using the macros from limits.h for long type and some bit shifting for off_t because POSIX couldn't be bothered to specify min and max macros.
It also defines HAVE_FSEEKI64 in SDL_config_windows.h so that the Windows function gets picked up automatically with the default config.
And there's an additional error message for when ftell fails.

Cmake checks for float.h, but configure does not: the attached patch
adds float.h to checked headers in configury, and it adds the missing
HAVE_FLOAT_H macro to SDL_config.h.cmake and SDL_config.h.in.
In SDL_config_macosx.h and SDL_config_windows.h, defined HAVE_FLOAT_H
as 1, where I know that it's true.
The internal function SDL_EGL_LoadLibrary() did not delete and remove a mostly
uninitialized data structure if loading the library first failed. A later try to
use EGL then skipped initialization and assumed it was previously successful
because the data structure now already existed. This led to at least one crash
in the internal function SDL_EGL_ChooseConfig() because a NULL pointer was
dereferenced to make a call to eglBindAPI().
