audio: rename "capture" devices?
I haven't decided if we should actually do this, but I'd maybe like to rename "capture" devices to "recording" or "input" or something.
In case I decide to, I'm just leaving this here in the 3.2.0 milestone so I remember to pull the trigger before it's too late.
(Also of note, there's a generous amount of waffling between calling the other direction "output" and "playback" devices...)
Input/output are too generic, that would also refer to hdmi / jack / vga hardware audio/video, or joystick.
Since the video part is named camera, that should be consistent to call it microphone I guess. If this is named recording, then it would make sense to have the camera api named also recording.
Without thinking deeply, my immediate expectation is audio "recording" and "playback". Same with camera "recording"
Agree with "recording/playback", input/output and source/destination can start to mean different things when you get into stuff like mix graphs (XAudio2's terminology is the main example that comes to mind for me).
Okay, this is done, sdl2-compat is updated and sdlwiki has the old symbols removed.
