This patch updates the DS port:
- do not use the now removed compat layer.
- integrate parts of libgl2D since I got permission from the author, and thus
removed an external dependancy,
- a few bugs fixes.
Now, the textures should be completely supported, except reading from them
which doesn't makes sense to have on the DS. Sound is still not supported.
If someone else wants to work on the missing pieces, feel free.

I've cleaned up a few bugs in the nds code. A few more tests now pass.
There's still a few things to do, but overall I think it's starting to be in a
good shape.
The patch also includes a bug fix for SDL_ConvertSurfaceFormat() (gcc warning).

For those interested, here's a snapshot of the current port. I did away with
most of the previous attempt which was based of the sprite engine, because the
support is limited to 128 64x64 sprites. Instead I'm using the gl engine.
The drawback is that either the frame buffer or the gl engine can be used
because there's not that much video memory on a DS.
With minimal changes to their code, it can now run the following tests: ,
testspriteminimal, testscale and testsprite2. The last 2 only run under the
emulator for some reason. The tests are not included in this patch for size
reason.
In 16 bits mode, the 16th bit indicated transparency/opacity. If 0, the color
is not displayed. So I had to patch a few core file to set that bit to 1. See
patch for src/video/SDL_RLEaccel.c and src/video/SDL_blit.h. Is that ok, or is
there a better way ?
The nds also doesn't support windowed mode, so I force the fullscreen in
src/video/SDL_video.c. Is that ok, or is there a better way ?
To get a smaller library, I also tried to not compile the software renderer
when the hardware renderer is compiled in, and define SDL_NO_COMPAT; however
the compilation eventually fails in SDL_surface.c because SDL_SRCCOLORKEY is
defined in SDL_compat.h. Is SDL_NO_COMPAT only for application and not SDL
itself ?
The trick is that if you're using configure and you don't want to have SDL_config.h and SDL_revision.h to show up as modified, you need to configure and build from a separate directory.
You also need to include SDL_revision.h directly if you want to use the SDL_REVISION constant, as a side effect of these changes.

Patch attached. The renderer for the DS is not used anymore, but I left the
file in place if someone wants to finish it.
I've also added a README.ds and fixed the spinlocks.
The following patch fixes some of the bitrot for the Nintendo DS port.
The support is still basic at the moment, but it allows to run the "general"
test under the current head of tree (parent: 5269:11bd1585efb5 tip).
Most of the patch is mine, but I integrated a couple changes that John
Magnotti posted on Feb 1st.
