Notably: it sets the error string to inform you that your custom SDL is built
without xrandr support, which apparently has been a support issue for
Unreal Engine 4 developers.
Unity's window manager is (legitimately, since it moves the client window's
position) sending one, and SDL was incorrectly trying to mask it out. Other
window managers (KWin, apparently) don't move the window and would hang here
indefinitely.
Fixes Bugzilla #3052.
In extremely rare cases, probably due to misconfigured drivers, one might
see this happen, and rather than terminate the process, we try to recover
by reporting an error to the app.
Fixes Bugzilla #3068.
There are platforms it isn't implemented on (and currently can't be
implemented on!), and there's currently no way for an app to know this.
This shouldn't break ABI on apps that moved to a revision between 2.0.3 and
2.0.4.
This relies on a successful SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO) to work, since it's
silly to reproduce all the Xinerama/XRandR code in the message box parts. If
X11 is available but SDL hasn't been initialized, the message box will center
in the primary screen, which will be positioned weirdly on multi-head setups,
but this should fix the most significant common case.

fix 14dd48ae5bc43b61b2a0dd0b3177d22edec707ef regression
The window manager detection code in X11_HasWindowManager does not work
with Awesome (http://awesome.naquadah.org/). Remove it, and reuse the
result of the more correct checks in X11_CheckWindowManager.
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().
