The bugfix in https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/ba1a66b57385 caused SDL_SetRelativeMouseMode() to begin failing on Vivante (Steam Link). Even though Vivante doesn't have a SetRelativeMouseMode() or WarpMouse() function, it's in relative mode already (because it uses evdev) so the function was actually working as intended.
I think providing a no-op SetRelativeMouseMode() function for Vivante is a reasonable fix. Since it's already getting relative events through evdev, it really is a no-op to "enter relative mode".
In fact, this is probably the right thing to do for all backends that use evdev (vivante, raspberry, and kmsdrm). Raspberry and kmsdrm both have WarpMouse() implementations so SDL_SetRelativeMouseMode() isn't failing there, but it still seems to make sense not to have to do the fake warping if they're evdev-based anyway.
It causes the HIDAPI devices to always be opened on enumeration, which causes crashes in the Windows drivers when multiple applications are reading and writing at the same time. We can revisit this after 2.0.10 release.

The Dualshock 3's motion sensors don't seem to be reported by the call to EVIOCGBIT but they still send EV_ABS events. Because they're not reported by EVIOCGBIT they're not assigned a proper axis ids and the default of 0 is used, which is the valid id for the left analog sticks left/right axis.
If you enable this, you'll need to link with CoreBluetooth.framework and add something like this to your Info.plist:
<key>NSBluetoothPeripheralUsageDescription</key>
<string>MyApp would like to remain connected to nearby bluetooth Game Controllers and Game Pads even when you're not using the app.</string>

Xcode warns about
"Traditional headermap style is no longer supported; please migrate to using separate headermaps and set 'ALWAYS_SEARCH_USER_PATHS' to NO."
Just doing the latter is enough to silence the warning without ill effects on compiling. This affects the macOS Xcode projects as well as the iOS projects. Definitely not a bug but an annoying warning that could go away.

This cleans up the Xcode project by setting the Xcode groups to the corresponding directories. This also removes the Resources folder in OS X's Products group and adds the CoreBluetooth framework to the iOS tests (this is needed due to the addition of hidapi.
