Request for fallback software renderer

[GoogleCodeExporter]

This computer is one of the few laptops that the FSF have come even close to 
recommending. Unfortunately, it doesn't have a 3d acceleration card. If that 
laptop doesn't have a mesa implementation, games that transition from using 
sdl1.2 to sdl_gpu would have raised system requirements to the point where 
computers like the yeeloong 8101b can't even support them. At the very least, 
can you add a fallback software renderer that is superior to sdl2's downgraded 
renderer?

I would love to have a software renderer that doesn't depend on OpenGL/Mesa.  
It is certainly possible to do, but unfortunately this feature is a low 
priority until there are more developers working on SDL_gpu or the codebase has 
time to mature and stabilize further.
