Summary: Triple buffering
Initial Comment:
In the display section, the display flags do not contain an option for triple buffering (version 4.9.8). Only double buffering and page flipping is provided.
By referring to triple buffering, I am referring to the classic method of avoiding the shearing effect by using 3 buffers instead of two.

I think the best way to implement this would be like:
al_set_new_display_option(ALLEGRO_SWAP_METHOD, ALLEGRO_TRIPLE_BUFFER,
ALLEGRO_SUGGEST)
If that is used, then DirectX would could a triple-buffer chain. All other
drivers would simply ignore it (or can you get triple buffering with
OpenGL?)
