f4a5a0fad1 WinRT: fixed a crash in SDL_Quit
SDL was expected that each SDL_DisplayMode had a driverdata field that was SDL_malloc'ed, and was calling SDL_free on them.  This change moves WinRT's driverdata content into a SDL_malloc'ed field.

abfbed92cf WinRT: simulate keyboard events on Windows Phone 8 back-button presses
Pressing the hardware back button on a Windows Phone 8 device will now cause SDL to emit a pair of key-down and key-up events, with the SDL scancode, SDL_SCANCODE_AC_BACK.

By default, if WinRT's native back-button-press events are not explicitly marked as 'handled', then Windows Phone will terminate the app.  More details on Microsoft's reasoning behind this can be found on MSDN, at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop/jj247550(v=vs.105).aspx

To mark back-button-press events as 'handled', set SDL_HINT_WINRT_HANDLE_BACK_BUTTON to 1.  Setting it to anything else will cause these events to not be marked as 'handled'.

Due to limitations in Windows Phone's APIs, SDL will emit a virtual key-up event immediately after the back button's key-down event is registered.  Unfortunately, Windows Phone 8 only allows one to register for back-button-press events, and not back-button-release events.

7eaa3cd81d WinRT: added a means to display a privacy policy link via the Settings charm
This change is only relevant for Windows 8, 8.1, and RT apps, and only for those that are network-enabled.  Such apps must feature a link to a privacy policy, which must be displayed via the Windows Settings charm.  This is needed to pass Windows Store app-certification.

Using SDL_SetHint, along with SDL_HINT_WINRT_PRIVACY_POLICY_URL and optionally SDL_HINT_WINRT_PRIVACY_POLICY_LABEL, will cause SDL/WinRT to create a link inside the Windows Settings charm, as invoked from within an SDL-based app.

Network-enabled Windows Phone apps do not need to set this hint, and should provide some sort of in-app means to display their privacy policy.  Microsoft does not appear to provide an OS-integrated means for displaying such on Windows Phone.

58dd086487 WinRT: unified the two, public, app-init functions
This function, SDL_WinRTRunApp, can be used to help launch either XAML or non-XAML/Direct3D-only based apps.
