Patch to fix the y component of the position of fullscreen windows in OS X.

In Mac OS X with the latest Mercurial code, when a window is in exclusive-fullscreen the y component of its position is offset by the same amount that is normally taken up by the menubar, resulting in a black bar at the top of the screen.

The recent changes to the internal ConvertNSRect function make it treat the bottom of the menubar as 0 for the y component of window positions, even when the window is fullscreen and 'above' the menubar.

I have attached a patch which fixes the issue by only making the window position relative to the menubar in windowed modes.

Regenerated patch

I can confirm this problem with latest mercurial and OS X 10.9.2.
To reproduce, run testdraw2 with the command-line arguments "--fullscreen --geometry 1920x1080" (I'm using a 1920x1080 external monitor).

Thanks for the patch Alex, it fixes the problem for me. I had some trouble applying it, so I uploaded my regenerated version - the content of the patch is the same though.

Sorry about that - I forgot to generate it from a clean copy of SDL_cocoawindow.m. :(
