Scaling the contents of the game window

Fixed in 9518a2c. (Or it should be; I don't have a high DPI display to test this on. Leaving this open in case you have any issues with this).

Also, PC is a "first class citizen", not just for debugging. The code is really messy because I first wrote it with 3DS support in mind mainly, which required me to use SDL 1.2, and then I kept bolting on features and fixes for better PC support, so I apologize for that.

That does it, lovely <3

@gek169 The documentation (readme.md) clearly states:

PC and 3DS are the main supported platforms, though other people are maintaining ports to other platforms.

tbh, it could be that I've been misled in someway (I know little about the history of this project), but lets see what the developers think of making this work somewhat nicer on PC. (actually, the code is riddled with #ifdef 3DS pragmas, so the code already contains portions dedicated to the 3DS and portions specific to PC)

A shame, I actually found this project in my package manager, so I kinda expected it to treat PCs as first class citizens. Feel free to close if this is of little interest, maybe I can live with a dirty patch.

The scaling works greats, thank you so much!

The only thing I noticed is that each scale operation leaves behind artifacts or traces (even more so than before). Personally, it doesn't bother me so much, as I normally don't go around scaling my game windows all the time. So close if you're satisfied ☺

Here's a video demonstration of me resizing the window and the funky visual results this creates (note that the main content always renders nicely though; it's only the "letterboxing" that acts "buggy")

Oops, forgot to clear the renderer. de51aa6 should fix it.
