SDL3 has text input off by default and per-window, so without
SDL_StartTextInput() it emits no SDL_EVENT_TEXT_INPUT at all and every
keystroke reaches libakgl's ring with an empty text field. The editor had just
been changed to prefer that composed text over the keycode, so it read every
key as not-a-character: no echo in the window, and nothing on stdout either,
because RUN could never be typed. One cause, both symptoms.
The editor now falls back to the keycode when there is no composed text, so a
host that forgets to start text input gets a worse keyboard rather than none.
The suite missed this because every keyboard test pushes the text-input event
into SDL's queue by hand -- which is what a real keyboard produces, but only
once text input has been started. Synthesising the end of a chain cannot test
the beginning of it. The new test asserts SDL_TextInputActive() directly, and
both halves were checked by reverting each and watching it fail.

0.3.0 closed all ten API gaps this port had filed. The four workarounds go
with them: the CMake block that declared libakgl's vendored dependencies by
hand, the akgl/actor.h include in three files, and the six vtable pointers
assigned by hand in two more, now akgl_render_bind2d().
Two gaps were capabilities rather than inconveniences, and both are now real:
The line editor takes the composed UTF-8 text the ring carries in preference
to the keycode, so shifted characters, keyboard layouts, compose keys and dead
keys all work. A double quote can be typed, which means a BASIC string literal
can be typed -- the sharp end of the old limitation. Letters are no longer
folded to upper case.
SOUND's dir/min/step reach akgl_audio_sweep instead of being refused. dir 3
sweeps once rather than oscillating and TODO.md section 5 says so. A backend
with no sweep still refuses the swept note and plays the held one.
The adaptors now carry an AKGL_VERSION_AT_LEAST(0, 3, 0) floor, verified by
temporarily demanding 0.4.0 and watching it fire.

An AKGL build of `basic` was a terminal program with unused SDL linked into
it. It now opens the reference's 800x600 window, draws BASIC output in the
Commodore font, pumps events, lets you type at it, and still mirrors every
byte to stdout.
The stdout mirror is a composing sink rather than a second write inside the
interpreter, and lives in the core library where it needs no SDL. The line
editor waits for a typed line by borrowing one frame at a time from the host,
so nothing blocks and nothing owns an event loop it should not.
The whole golden corpus now runs through the SDL binary as well as the stdio
one, byte for byte.
