This isn't for direct use by apps, but this is the code that is inserted when an SDL_assert
is enabled.

The do{}while(0) avoids dangling else problems:

if (x) SDL_assert(y); else blah();

... without the do/while, the "else" could attach to this macro's "if". We try to handle just the minimum we need here in a macro...the loop, the static vars, and break points. The heavy lifting is handled in

SDL_ReportAssertion ().

This macro is available since SDL 3.2.0.
