Enhancement request: Add Jack support in SDL2

[fdziarmagowski]

Please consider adding Jack audio back-end to SDL2 and enable it by default. This is required for environments where Jack server is running and providing an audio interface for applications. Without it SDL2 applications fail to provide sound output to Jack (SDL audio device opening...failed (Audio subsystem is not initialized))
