Android Crashes when screen rotates

[Hanprogramer]

Summary

Basically the app just crashes when the screen rotate, even without any rendering code. The problem is on SDL, when your app rotates it called SDL_Quit or something (not sure) but basically the screen surface is destroyed

Steps to reproduce

• Platform: Android
• Framework Version: .NET 6 android
• API: SDL

1. I created a new android project with dotnet new
2. Then I copied some code from the example repo
3. It works, but when I rotate it, it crashes

**Silk.NET.SDL.SdlException:** 'Couldn't find display mode match'

Note: I double checked and decompiled the resulting apk, and it does have android:configChanges set to the correct values

I also have that problem.

I assume that the problem is caused because the SDL window is created without SDL_WINDOW_RESIZABLE flag (see: https://lazyfoo.net/tutorials/SDL/53_extensions_and_changing_orientation/index2.php).

I have quickly checked the source code and saw that when creating a SdlView the WindowFlags.WindowResizable is not set because the _platform.IsViewOnly is true (see SdlView.CoreInitialize method).

It would be also possible to provide WindowFlags.WindowResizable in the additionalFlags parameter, but I do not see how a user would be able to set that and call SdlView.CoreInitialize method.

I cannot compile Silk.Net source so I cannot test that. Maybe this will help you solve this problem sooner.
