Add fullscreen shortcut

[Sophira]

NOTE: This is a draft pull request and not ready to be pulled in just yet, see below! I'm posting this in order to ask for advice on how this works.

I'm working on making it possible to have a key shortcut to enter fullscreen mode, as suggested at https://stardot.org.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?p=395344#p395344 . (I've chosen CTRL-PGDN for this but am happy to go for another if wanted.) The docs that I can find for wxWidgets suggest that this can be done by adding the key shortcut to the label of the menu item and that this should be all that's necessary to work.

In order to make this work, I fixed a small typo in the Makefile that was causing the wx-resources.cc file to not be regenerated (and removed the file from the distribution so that it's rebuilt on compile) [edit: This is now a separate pull request, #42], but even with this fixed there the key shortcut appears not to work; it's displayed properly, but pressing the key shortcut doesn't work, even when input isn't grabbed. I don't know enough about wxWidgets to know why this might be the case, unfortunately. I'll try to work more on it but I was wondering in the meantime if you (or anybody) know why this might be failing?

Thank you for any help anybody can give!

(note that the Makefile that's currently in the repository hasn't been updated as these files should be removed from the git repository - see pull request #8. I'm happy to update the Makefile if wanted but these files in the git repo are pretty outdated as I recall.)

Input is handled through SDL events, which is probably why the wxWidgets shortcuts aren't working. Interestingly, in the Linux code in wx-sdl2.c, there is a shortcut to enter fullscreen using RWIN+ENTER (on my laptop it's Right Ctrl + Enter):

		/*Toggle fullscreen with RWIN-Enter (Alt-Enter, Cmd-Enter),
		  or enter by selecting Fullscreen from the menu.*/
		if (win_dofullscreen ||
			(key[KEY_RWIN] && key[KEY_ENTER] && !fullscreen)
		)
		{
			win_dofullscreen = 0;

			SDL_RaiseWindow(sdl_main_window);
			SDL_SetWindowFullscreen(sdl_main_window, SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN_DESKTOP);
			sdl_enable_mouse_capture();
			fullscreen = 1;
		}

This code isn't in wx-win32.c:

		if (win_dofullscreen)
		{
			win_dofullscreen = 0;

			SetMenu(ghwnd, 0);
			SDL_RaiseWindow(sdl_main_window);
			SDL_SetWindowFullscreen(sdl_main_window, SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN_DESKTOP);
			mouse_capture_enable();
			fullscreen = 1;

		}

but it should be easy to change that if to match the Linux version. I'm not set up to compile Arculator on Windows, so I'm not able to test this.

Oh, interesting! I use Linux myself and didn't know about this. (For me, it's RWin + Enter.) That said, the Linux fullscreen thing appears to continually toggle on and off each frame(?) depending on the state of the key currently, rather than only occurring on keydown. This feels like something worth fixing and adding to the Windows build, but I don't have the build environment in order to be able to make the Win32 build so I can't test it.

The said, I'll see what I can do to get the Linux part working first and then see what I can do for Windows.

[Sophira]

Annoyingly, RWIN isn't a key that can be displayed in the accelerator part of the menu (see https://docs.wxwidgets.org/3.0/classwx_menu_item.html#a8b0517fb35e3eada66b51568aa87f261 ) but honestly I don't think you can use a Windows key as part of a shortcut in Windows anyway; I think those are reserved for the OS. That being the case, we should probably think of an appropriate key shortcut; I'd personally recommend the key shortcut I had at first, CTRL+PGDN. I'll keep going based on that.

Does anybody know of a keyboard tester program I could run on the RISC OS side? I'm retooling to use SDL events and I'd like to make sure that everything stays the same on the RISC OS side as it was before.

You could knock something up with SDL since your brain is operating in SDL mode ;-) SDL does support RISC OS!

Can I request the hotkey combination be user configurable. My HP Pavilion laptop is rather lacking on the key front front, missing RWIN, RCTRL, MENU and BREAK!?! That latter missing key is really annoying for Acorn emulation, I can tell you..!

As I am submitting the "Fix typo to allow wx-resources creation" part of this bug in a separate pull request (#42), I will force-push the code currently here to remove that commit.

[edit: On second thoughts, I rebased this pull request to be on top of the commit that the other pull request uses, since of course it's still necessary.]
