Bug#1012863: libsdl2: Add --disable-video-rpi to configure

[Christer Solskogen]

Package: libsdl2-dev
Version: 2.0.22+dfsg-3
Severity: normal
File: libsdl2
Tags: newcomer

Dear Maintainer,
Please add --disable-video-rpi to ./configure in order to disable the usage of the old and unmaintained Raspberry Pi driver. KMS is now the prefered driver for the Pi, and while this option might seem correct, it uses the old kernel driver which conflicts with KMS/DRM.
I've compiled libsdl2 using the sources from bookwork, and compiles cleanly and the resulting library works as far as my testing goes.
The lastest Raspberry Pi OS use bullseye, and the old Raspberry Pi SDL driver is incompatible with it.
