The backgrounds can be quite large, for example
the Hellfire title background is a 2.4 MiB PCX file.
Previously, we converted all background to SDL surfaces.
This required extra memory, e.g. the 2.4 MiB Hellfire
title background uses 4.6 MiB as an SDL surface.
Changes the background to render directly from PCX instead
to reduce the allocator pressure.
Double clicking a menu list was not intuitive and could leave some
people confused about how to progress from the very first screen.
This is unfortunatly more important then having a nice preview when
using arrow keys to high light the other option :(
Use that instead of using `GetOutputSurface()` directly.
For the rg99 port, we'll want to render this to the `pal_surface`
instead of output surface directly.
Might also be useful for 3ds, perhaps to render to the bottom screen.
Still missing is the support screen (functionally identical to the
credit screen)
This also fixes a long standing issue with the menu code where it would
some times return the index and some times the value of the selected
menu item. It now always returns the index and reciver must look up the
value.
Text mode is on by default. Calling SDL_StartTextInput() will start the
virual keyboard, but does not allow for a default value. Calling it as
well as switch_start_text_input() will start the keyboard a secound
time.
We still turn TextInput off on other platforms when it's not needed as
it can require additional resources.
