Building, finding and using SDL binaries

In short Alien::SDL can be used to detect and get configuration settings from an installed SDL and related libraries. Based on your platform it offers the possibility to download and install prebuilt binaries or to build SDL & co. from source codes.

The important facts:
* The module does not modify in any way the already existing SDL installation on your system.
* If you reinstall SDL libs on your system you do not need to reinstall Alien::SDL (providing that you use the same directory for the new installation).
* The prebuild binaries and/or binaries built from sources are always installed into perl module's 'share' directory.
* If you use prebuild binaries and/or binaries built from sources it happens that some of the dynamic libraries (*.so, *.dll) will not automaticly loadable as they will be stored somewhere under perl module's 'share' directory. To handle this scenario Alien::SDL offers some special functionality (see below).
