This replaces lots of getBlockParam() invocations.

Renamed functions, types, variables.

It returns bool, not int.

This patch tryes to introduce pluggable mixer (struct mixer_plugin) along with some basic infrastructure (mixer_* functions). Instance of mixer (struct mixer) is used in
alsa and oss output plugin

"#ifdef G_BYTE_ORDER == G_BIG_ENDIAN" cannot work, of course.

Use GLib's G_GNUC_UNUSED instead of gcc.h's mpd_unused.

When an output plugin fails to play a chunk, close it.  This replaces
various manual close() calls in nearly all plugins.

Don't return 0/-1 on success/error, but true/false.  Instead of int,
use bool for storing flags.

Don't accept 24 bit audio.  Force MPD to use 16 bit if anything other
than 8 or 16 bit is selected.

Don't compile the sources of disabled output plugins at all.

Again, no CamelCase in the directory name.

The OSS constants overflow a signed integer, use unsigned instead.

C enums are nicer than CPP macros.

Leftover from the output API changes: oss_open_default() was changed
to return a void*, but it still returned "0" to report success.
Report the OssData pointer instead.

This replaces the separate properties channels, sampleRate, bits.

The last bit of CamelCase in audio_format.h.  Additionally, rename a
bunch of local variables.

When there are standardized headers, use these instead of the bloated
os_compat.h.

The old struct initializers are error prone and don't allow moving
elements around.  Since we are going to overhaul some of the APIs
soon, it's easier to have all implementations use C99 initializers.

Seeing the "mpd_" prefix _everywhere_ is mind-numbing as the
mind needs to retrain itself to skip over the first 4 tokens of
a type to get to its meaning.  So avoid having extra characters
on my terminal to make it easier to follow code at 2:30 am in
the morning.

Please report any new issues you may come across on Free
toolchains.  I realize how difficult it can be to build/maintain
cross-compiling toolchains and I have no intention of forcing
people to upgrade their toolchains to build mpd.

Tested with gcc 2.95.4 and and gcc 4.3.1 on x86-32.

We have eliminated direct accesses to the audio_output struct from
the all output plugins.  Make it opaque for them, and move its real
declaration to output_internal.h, similar to decoder_internal.h.

Pass the opaque structure to plugin.init() only, which will return the
plugin's data pointer on success, and NULL on failure.  This data
pointer will be passed to all other methods instead of the
audio_output struct.

Since the output plugin returns a value indicating success or error,
we can have the output core code assign the "open" flag.

Pass the globally configured audio_format as a const pointer to
plugin.init().  plugin.open() gets a writable pointer which contains
the audio_format requested by the plugin.  Its initial value is either
the configured audio_format or the input file's audio_format.

Since the plugin struct is never modified, we should store it in
constant locations.

Also rename AudioOutputPlugin to struct audio_output_plugin, and use
forward declarations to reduce include dependencies.

Just like decoder_api.h, output_api.h provides the audio output API
which is used by the plugins.

Get rid of CamelCase, and don't use a typedef, so we can
forward-declare it, and unclutter the include dependencies.

Also enable -Wunused-parameter - this forces us to add the gcc
"unused" attribute to a lot of parameters (mostly library callback
functions), but it's worth it during code refactorizations.

The audio output plugins should get a constant pointer, because they
must not modify the buffer.  Since the size is a non-negative buffer
size in bytes, we should change its type to size_t.

Local variables which are never read before the first assignment don't
need initialization.  Saves a few bytes of text.  Also don't reset
variables which are never read until function return.

Tools like "sparse" check for missing downcasts, since implicit cast
may be dangerous.  Although that does not change the compiler result,
it may make the code more readable (IMHO), because you always see when
there may be data cut off.

This will make refactoring features easier, especially now that
pthreads support and larger refactorings are on the horizon.

Hopefully, this will make porting to other platforms (even
non-UNIX-like ones for masochists) easier, too.

os_compat.h will house all the #includes for system headers
considered to be the "core" of MPD.  Headers for optional
features will be left to individual source files.
