Change Cocoa SDL_VideoData and SDL_WindowData implementations from C structs to Objective-C objects, since bridging between C and ObjC is easier that way.
Currently, if an application wants to toggle VSync, they'd have to tear
down the renderer and recreate it. This patch fixes that by letting
applications call SDL_RenderSetVSync().
This is the same as the patch in #3673, except it applies to all
renderers (including PSP, even thought it seems that the VSync flag is
disabled for that renderer). Furthermore, the renderer flags also change
as well, which #3673 didn't do. It is also an API instead of using hint
callbacks (which could be potentially dangerous).
Closes#3673.
Fixes SDL_CreateWindowAndRenderer (and similar situations) not choosing a Metal backend. See #3991.
Passing an explicit backend into CreateWindow, eg SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL or SDL_WINDOW_METAL, will still prevent the window from being used with other backend types.
This is caused by the Metal renderer recreating the window because by default we create an OpenGL window on macOS.
It turns out that at least on macOS 10.15, a window that has been initialized for OpenGL can also be used with Metal. So we'll skip recreating the window in that case.

I tested building commit http://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/7adf3fdc19f3 on Mac Catalyst and found some issues:
* MTLFeatureSet_iOS_* enums aren't available under Mac Catalyst.
* OpenGL ES is unavailable under Mac Catalyst.
* Some Metal features are available under Catalyst but not iOS, such as displaySyncEnabled.
* Set Metal as the default renderer on Mac Catalyst
Attaching a patch that will make SDL2 build for Mac Catalyst.

Xcode11 and ios13 added support for metal simulator.
Here is a quick and dirty patch to enable it. Pretty early and only tested on a few samples for now. Required mostly to enable metal support on correct version of ios, generate simulator compatible shaders and enforce buffer alignments on simulator (same as osx).
This fixes a case where you render to the backbuffer, then render to a render
target, set the current target back to the backbuffer, and then present
without drawing anything else; in this circumstance, the Present command
would never happen.
Fixes Bugzilla #5011.

This kind of blending is rather quite useful and in my opinion should be available for all renderers. I do need it myself, but since I didn't want to use a custom blending mode which is supported only by certain renderers (e.g. not in software which is quite important for me) I did write implementation of SDL_BLENDMODE_MUL for all renderers altogether.
SDL_BLENDMODE_MUL implements following equation:
dstRGB = (srcRGB * dstRGB) + (dstRGB * (1-srcA))
dstA = (srcA * dstA) + (dstA * (1-srcA))

I think I did cover all possibilities within included patch, but I didn't write any tests for SDL_BLENDMODE_MUL, so it would be lovely if someone could do it.

This was something rather trivial to add, but asked at least several times before (I did google about it as well).
It should be possible to dynamically change scaling mode of the texture. It is actually trivial task, but until now it was only possible with a hint before creating a texture.
I needed it for my game as well, so I took the liberty of writing it myself.
This patch adds following functions:
SDL_SetTextureScaleMode(SDL_Texture * texture, SDL_ScaleMode scaleMode);
SDL_GetTextureScaleMode(SDL_Texture * texture, SDL_ScaleMode *scaleMode);
That way you can change texture scaling on the fly.
