This lets SDL-based apps respond to "Open With" commands properly, as they
can now obtain the requested path via a standard SDL dropfile event.
This is only checked on startup, so apps don't get drop events at any other
time, even if Android supports that, but this is still a definite
improvement.
Fixes Bugzilla #2762.
According to the documentation of Android's MotionEvent, the getPressure() may
return values higher than 1 on some devices. To prevent passing such values into
SDL they are now corrected to 1 in Java before the JNI call (where it is assumed
to be correct).
Currently SDL only sends SDL_FINGERMOTION events if the touch state (position or
pressure) changed. By correcting pressure down to 1 some events may get dropped
in the rare case that only the pressure was changed but was out of range and the
position did not change.
This avoids a hint lookup for each mouse event we get by setting a static Java
variable from native code during our hint watcher callback.
Also attempts to do the right thing with mouse buttons if you happen to be
on an API14 (Ice Cream Sandwich, Android 4.0) or later device. We still
target API12 (Honeycomb MR1, Android 3.1) for SDL 2.0.4 though.
This isn't tested, so I'm pushing to see what the Android buildbot says. Stand
back, I'm a professional!

If the alert dialog could be canceled the Activity would not be finished here.
Also setting the property to "true" would be redundant because that is default.

I attached a patch for an incomplete implementation of the messagebox parts.
It was not tested on lots of devices yet and features a very fragile workaround to block the calling SDL thread while the dialog is handled on Android's UI thread. Although it works for testmessage.c I assume there are lot of situations were it may fail (standby, device rotation and other changes). Also not all flags and colors are implemented.
On the other hand most uses of the messagebox are to show an error on start and fragility (or working at all) may not matter there.

If you play with the TouchScreen with +3 fingers randomly / pressing simultaneously all fingers.
You triggers FINGER DOWN events, but not always all the associated FINGER UP events.
So, after a while SDL_GetNumFingers() can report a wrong number of fingers pressed !
The explanation is hidden there : http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/MotionEvent.html
Each pointer has a unique id that is assigned when it first goes down (indicated by ACTION_DOWN or ACTION_POINTER_DOWN).
A pointer id remains valid until the pointer eventually goes up (indicated by ACTION_UP or ACTION_POINTER_UP) or when the gesture is canceled (indicated by ACTION_CANCEL).
in ACTION_CANCEL :
The current gesture has been aborted. You will not receive any more points in it. You should treat this as an up event, but not perform any action that you normally would.
Constant Value: 3 (0x00000003)
