Space mouse support

[jtristano]

I know that onshape supports space mouse. Can glvis also support space mouse, especially in live mode within the browser?

GLVis uses SDL2, so the question of adding support for space mouse is if SDL2 detects the device and then what type of SDL_* events it generates, so we can process them in various places, e.g. here:

glvis/lib/sdl.cpp

Line 362 in c2e621c

void SdlWindow::mainIter()

here:

glvis/lib/sdl_main.cpp

Line 188 in c2e621c

void SdlMainThread::DispatchSDLEvents()

and probably other places.

One can probably add potential event candidates to the big switch in the method SdlMainThread::DispatchSDLEvents() with a print statement to see what events are generated by the device. The potential candidates are most likely the following SDL events: https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/blob/9237f8edc16c88028a6de5514196fb798c4a0f5c/include/SDL_events.h#L113-L133
