Because EGL ties client API support to configs, attempts to create
a context with an unavailable client API will fail with the unhelpful
"failed to find suitable config" error description.
This attempts to detect cases where there are usable configs for the
other client API and emit a hopefully more helpful error.

On systems lacking the EGL_EXT_present_opaque extension, some
compositors treat any buffer with an alpha channel as per-pixel
transparent.
This commit ignores any EGLConfig with an alpha channel if the extension
is missing and the window is created with GLFW_TRANSPARENT_FRAMEBUFFER
set to false.
This is technically not a breaking change since GLFW_ALPHA_BITS is not
a hard constraint, but it is still going to inconvenience anyone using
the framebuffer alpa channel to store other kinds of data.

The NetBSD sonames for X11 and related libraries is more stable than on
OpenBSD but the version numbers are still bumped more often than their
Linux counterparts, even excluding the one-time version bump across all
X11 related libraries.
This commit moves to using version-less sonames for X11 and related
libraries on NetBSD, which will hopefully be more forward-compatible
than hard-coding NetBSD-specific sonames.
This may not be the correct long-term solution but it runs now.
Binaries also appear to need an LD_LIBRARY_PATH or rpath entry of
/usr/X11R7/lib in order for the libraries to be found by dlopen.
Tested on NetBSD 9.2.
The OpenBSD ports tree assigns its own soname version numbers, so the
hardcoded sonames GLFW uses to load libraries on non-macOS Unices are
often incorrect. Instead OpenBSD recommends that run-time loading
should leave out the version numbers entirely. The OpenBSD ld.so then
finds the correct library.
This upstreams the ports tree fixes for Xcursor and EGL, and adds the
corresponding fix for all other run-time loaded library sonames.
Tested on OpenBSD 7.0.
This issue was initially reported on IRC.
Corrects the protocol violation when creating an xdg_surface from a
wl_surface that already has a buffer due to EGL buffer swaps.
This commit is based on PR #1731 by @ghost, but adapted and altered:
- The XDG surface and role are now only created when a window is shown
to prevent application lists from showing command-line applications
with off-screen-only windows
- The special case of Wayland+EGL buffer swap is now in the EGL code
to mirror how X11 is handled
- Adaption to run-time platform selection and separate credits file
Fixes#1492Closes#1731
This extensions allows GLFW to instruct the driver to ignore the alpha
bits, even in formats which contain them. This makes it possible to use
the alpha bits as extra storage, without it affecting the end result
getting displayed to the user.

This adds compile-time support for multiple platforms and runtime
detection of them. Window system related platform functions are now
called from shared code via the function pointer struct _GLFWplatform.
The timer, thread and module loading platform functions are still called
directly by name and the implementation chosen at link-time. These
functions are the same for any backend on a given OS, including the Null
backend.
The platforms are now enabled via CMake dependent options following the
GLFW_BUILD_<platform> pattern instead of a mix of automagic and ad-hoc
option names. There is no longer any option for the Null backend as it
is now always enabled.
Much of the struct stitching work in platform.h was based on an earlier
experimental branch for runtime platform selection by @ronchaine.
Every platform function related to windows, contexts, monitors, input,
event processing and Vulkan have been renamed so that multiple sets of
them can exist without colliding. Calls to these are now routed through
the _glfw.platform struct member. These changes makes up most of this
commit.
For Wayland and X11 the client library loading and display creation is
used to detect a running compositor/server. The XDG_SESSION_TYPE
environment variable is ignored for now, as X11 is still by far the more
complete implementation.

The native access functions for context handles did not verify that the
context had been created with the same API the function was for.
This makes these functions emit GLFW_NO_WINDOW_CONTEXT on API mismatch.
This adds the glfwInitAllocator function for specifying a custom memory
allocator to use instead of the C runtime library.
The allocator is a struct of type GLFWallocator with fields
corresponding to malloc, realloc and free, while the internal API
corresponds to calloc, realloc and free.
Heap allocation calls are filtered before reaching the user-provided
functions, so deallocation of NULL and allocations of zero bytes are not
passed on, reallocating NULL is transformed into an allocation and
reallocating to size zero is transformed into deallocation.
The clearing of a new block to zero is performed by the internal
calloc-like function.
Closes#544.
Fixes#1628.

The EGL backend ignored the state of GLFW_DOUBLEBUFFER and always
created a double-buffered EGL window.
This sets the EGL_RENDER_BUFFER attribute at EGL window creation
appropriately.
Fixes#1843.
This adds support for EGL_EXT_platform_base and its associated X11 and
Wayland extensions, allowing us to explicitly tell EGL which window
system we are using.
This is based on work by @linkmauve in #1691.
Closes#1691.
These are harmless errors but the code was worth fixing just to reduce
confusion and be more explicit. E.g. using a different variable name
for a new variable of a different type in win32_joystick.c.
Closes#1700.
This completes support for window framebuffer transparency on Windows,
macOS and X11. Note that the hint/attribute may be renamed before
release to clarify its relationship to GLFW_OPACITY.

PFN_FunctionName is more readable than SCREAMSOUP_T.
Context creation API function typedefs are kept as-is where the original
header provided them, for compatibility and familiarity reasons.
If EGL_KHR_get_all_proc_addresses extension is supported, then don't try
to load a separate client library. Instead, just use eglGetProcAddress
to load everything.
This can also avoid problems with trying to use OpenGL functions from
libGL.so.1 (which is the GLX library) when an EGL context is current.
Closes#871.
