Add SDL2_STATIC variable, when set to ON will link the static version of SDL2 and add any necessary libs and linker flags for linking it statically from pkg-config. All extra libs and linker flags are added to SDL2_LIBRARY, so the user does not need to do anything except set that flag. For dynamic linking, any extra stuff from pkg-config is also retrieved and added to SDL2_LIBRARY. The variable SDL2_DEFINITIONS is also retrieved from `pkg-config --cflags-only-other`. The user needs to call ADD_DEFINITIONS for it, the documentation is updated to reflect this. If pkg-config is not available, the module functions as before with no errors, but SDL2_STATIC will probably fail. TODO: * warn if pkg-config is not found * add similar code to the other two cmake modules, or factor it out * support sdl2-config as well (extra parsing)

Move closer to allowing an "out of the box" distributable build for Mac: * fix the icon for the .app * link SDL2 statically, a PR has been sent to the original repo here: tcbrindle/sdl2-cmake-scripts#9 * link SFML statically TODO: For a releasable build on OS X, system libs must be linked dynamically while third party libs are linked statically or bundled. The goal is to link them statically. The two remaining libs that need static linking are PNG and wX. For PNG a similar approach to the one used for SDL2 using pkg-config should work fine and be simple to implement. For wX things are more complicated. The default build of wX does not include static libs, I will need to submit a PR for Homebrew to change the default build to include both dynamic and static versions.

For dynamic linking, any extra stuff from pkg-config is also retrieved

The variable SDL2_DEFINITIONS is also retrieved from
pkg-config --cflags-only-other.If pkg-config is not available, the module functions as before with no
