#17154: SDL3: cursor displays without transparency

-----------------------+----------------------
 Using SDL3, I'm seeing cursors rendered without transparency; the place
 that's intended to be transparent instead just displays as pure black,
 occluding the game content. This is not specific to any particular game,
 and occurs with the old-style ScummVM GUI with the SCUMM-style "plus"
 cursor too.

 This seems to be specific to indexed-colour cursors; I'm seeing it for
 pure black and white cursors, such as the Mac-style cursors in Director
 games and the SCUMM-style cursor in the old-style ScummVM GUI theme, but
 not with the 24-bit colour cursor used by the modern ScummVM themes.

 I'm using macOS 15.7.9 and SDL3 3.4.14. I tested with latest git HEAD
 (fe716957a7e7e98606778645999625028304ab02), but haven't been able to
 determine when this was introduced; it occurs many months back. I've
 attached screenshots.

 I haven't been able to test on any other OSs to confirm if this happens
 there too or if this is a Mac-only bug.
