The reasoning behind this change is that source2 in -tools mode has a single OpenGL context that is used with multiple different windows. Some of those windows are created outside the engine (i.e. with Qt) and therefore we need to use SDL_CreateWindowFrom() to get an SDL_Window for those. The requirement for sharing an OpenGL context across multiple different windows is that each window has the same pixel format. To facilitate this, I now set SDL_HINT_VIDEO_WINDOW_SHARE_PIXEL_FORMAT for the main window before calling SDL_CreateWindowFrom(). When I do this, SDL_CreateWindowFrom() will:
1. Set the pixel format of the returned window to the same pixel format as this SDL_Window passed in with the hint
2. The flag SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL will be set on the new window so it can be used for OpenGL rendering.
I only currently implemented this for Win32/WGL so implementing it for other platforms (i.e. X11) remains a TODO.

Some pseudocode that shows how this is used in Source2:
HWND hExternalHwnd; // HWND that was established outside of SDL
// Create main window (happens inside platwindow.cpp)
SDL_Window *mainWindow = SDL_CreateWindow( , SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL .. );
// Create GL context, happens inside rendersystemgl
SDL_GLContext onlyContext = SDL_GL_CreateContext( mainWindow );
// Now I need to create another window from hEternalHwnd for my swap chain that will have the same pixel format as mainWindow, so set the hint
SDL_SetHint( SDL_HINT_VIDEO_WINDOW_SHARE_PIXEL_FORMAT, CFmtStr( %p, mainWindow) );
// Create the secondary window. This returned window will have SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL set and share a pixel format with mainWindow from the hint
SDL_Window *secondaryWindow = SDL_CreateWindowFrom( hExternalHwnd );
// To render to the main window:
SDL_GL_MakeCurrent( mainWindow, onlyContext );
// Do some rendering to main window
// To render to the secondary window:
SDL_GLMakeCurrent( secondaryWindow, onlyContext );
// Do some rendering to secondary window
This fixes weird behavior on Mac where our first responder reverts to the window
itself, rather than the SDLTranslatorResponder, after the window has lost focus
once. This causes Escape to call cancelOperation: on the NSWindow, which by
default removes our fullscreen-ness.
When someone has turned off SDL_TEXTINPUT we should probably set another initial
responder that handles the Escape behavior, so that SDL_TEXTINPUT doesn't change
fullscreen behavior (and possibly other behavior) like it does now.

Previously, we'd minimize fullscreen windows (if
SDL_HINT_VIDEO_MINIMIZE_ON_FOCUS_LOSS was set) during SDL_DestroyWindow if they
had keyboard focus, because we call SDL_SetKeyboardFocus(NULL) which yields a
OnWindowsFocusLost event.
