Replaced all occurrences of g_error() with MPD_ERROR() located in a new header
file 'mpd_error.h'. This macro uses g_critical() to print the error message
and then exits gracefully in contrast to g_error() which would internally call
abort() to produce a core dump.

The macro name is distinctive and allows to find all places with dubious error
handling. The long-term goal is to get rid of MPD_ERROR() altogether. To
facilitate the eventual removal of this macro it was added in a new header
file rather than to an existing header file.

This fixes #2995 and #3007.

Adds mixrampdb and mixrampdelay commands.  Reads MIXRAP_START and
MIXRAMP_END tags from FLAC files and overlaps instead of crossfading.

This patch prepares support for floating point samples (and probably
other formats).  It changes the meaning of the "bits" attribute from a
bit count to a symbolic value.

After we've been hit by Large File Support problems several times in
the past week (which only occur on 32 bit platforms, which I don't
have), this is yet another attempt to fix the issue.

This updates the copyright header to all be the same, which is
pretty much an update of where to mail request for a copy of the GPL
and the years of the MPD project. This also puts all committers under
'The Music Player Project' umbrella. These entries should go
individually in the AUTHORS file, for consistancy.

In generic PCM functions allowing all sample formats, pass a void
pointer instead of a char pointer.

Moved the software mixing code (used by crossfading) to a separate
library.
