SDL_ConvertSurface - Copy an existing surface to a new surface of the specified format.

       This function is available since SDL 3.2.0.

       This  function  is used to optimize images for faster repeat blitting. This is accomplished by converting
       the original and storing the result as a new surface. The new, optimized surface can then be used as  the
       source for future blits, making them faster.

       If you are converting to an indexed surface and want to map colors to a palette, you can use

       SDL_ConvertSurfaceAndColorspace () instead.

       If the original surface has alternate images, the new surface will have a reference to them as well.
