Closes#4924.
Based on patches of the past, such as this work by James Cloos in July
2010:
d7d98751b7,
as well as code comments in the Perl module X11::Protocol::WM
(https://metacpan.org/pod/X11::Protocol::WM) and even the code to Xlib
itself, which taught me that we should never have been using
`XStoreName`, all it does is call `XChangeProperty`, hardcoded to
`XA_STRING`!
What can I say, when the task is old school, the sources are too 😂
macOS 10.6 has some touch NSEvents which do not have a subtype
(Begin/EndGesture, Magnify, Rotate, Swipe) and cause an uncaught
exception which triggers SIGABRT and the program exits.
As it is, none of the macOS 10.6 touch events are detected as a
trackpad (including Gesture due to using different subtypes).
Case fallthrough warnings can be suppressed using the __fallthrough__
compiler attribute. Unfortunately, not all compilers have this
attribute, or even have __has_attribute to check if they have the
__fallthrough__ attribute. [[fallthrough]] is also available in C++17
and the next C2x, but not everyone uses C++17 or C2x.
So define the SDL_FALLTHROUGH macro to deal with those problems - if we
are using C++17 or C2x, it expands to [[fallthrough]]; else if the
compiler has __has_attribute and has the __fallthrough__ attribute, then
it expands to __attribute__((__fallthrough__)); else it expands to an
empty statement, with a /* fallthrough */ comment (it's a do {} while
(0) statement, because users of this macro need to use a semicolon,
because [[fallthrough]] and __attribute__((__fallthrough__)) require a
semicolon).
Clang before Clang 10 and GCC before GCC 7 have problems with using
__attribute__ as a sole statement and warn about a "declaration not
declaring anything", so fall back to using the /* fallthrough */ comment
if we are using those older compiler versions.
Applications using SDL are also free to use this macro (because it is
defined in begin_code.h).
All existing /* fallthrough */ comments have been replaced with this
macro. Some of them were unnecessary because they were the last case in
a switch; using SDL_FALLTHROUGH in those cases would result in a compile
error on compilers that support __fallthrough__, for having a
__attribute__((__fallthrough__)) statement that didn't immediately
precede a case label.

This causes lots of spam in test automation and it's not clear it's useful to developers. If we need this level of validation, we should add a log category for it.
