This pull request performs the following:

Updates the project from SDL 2 to the latest version of SDL 3.
- This lays the groundwork for later commits which provide new features based on these changes.
Fixed a rendering issue caused by changes in how SDL 3.0 handles high-DPI displays.
Window frame now displays in either black or white, depending on the user's system theme (dark/light).
- Functionality to configure this, or retrieve the current system theme, are planned for later PRs.

Testing with more sample projects, I have found the following issues:

Stutters and major frame drops on an occasional basis, even when nothing particularly complex is happening.
Issues with rendering of text in HaxeFlixel.

This will need to be resolved before development of SDL3 features like PreciseKeyEvent can continue.

This will probably need to be fully rewritten to get it to work properly.
