Demo programs (SDL2) freeze when dragged to 2nd monitor on macos

Confirmed... interesting, it seems like the display stops updating, but the apps still respond to input (e.g. exit on 'q'. where applicable). I'll investigate further.

SDL2 does have awareness of multiple monitors. I suspect this is related to moving the window to a monitor with a different DPI (e.g. a built-in Retina monitor to an external non-Retina). The suggested solutions I'm seeing for similar-sounding problems involve making the app DPI-aware... which, see issue #18.

OK, you can unfreeze the apps by resizing them, at least the ones that support resizing. Hmm...

[wmcbrine]

OK, I can fix it by removing the check that the new size is different from the old size in the resizing handler. Will clean this up a bit before commit.

Confirmed patch works as intended, but resizing a window once dragged to the non-retina display is badly broken. Does seem related to #18
It is also annoying that an SDL program launched from a terminal session in the secondary monitor opens on the primary display.

Resizing of windows dragged to screens of different DPI now works.

While SDL has no concept of a controlling terminal, I can make the window open on the screen where the moiuse pointer is.

Looks like this is solved, isn't it?
