The sequencer API is totally recoded with the style of "encapsulation"
in other api.
The structure becomes opaque and accessed only via functions.
Other changes:
- There is no longer group in client and port info.
- snd_seq_query_subs_t is renamed to snd_seq_query_subscribe_t.
- snd_seq_delete_port takes only the port id argument instead of
port_info structure.
- snd_seq_input/output_buffer_size are renamed
as snd_seq_get_input/output_buffer_size.
Similarly snd_seq_resize_input/output_buffer are renamed as
snd_seq_set_input/output_buffer_size.
- snd_seq_get_named_queue is renamed to snd_seq_query_named_queue.
- Sync codes are removed temporarily from API.
- Subscription conditions are accessed via the corresponding functions.
convert_time is named now as time_update.
- snd_seq_get/set_queue_owner are removed.
Use snd_seq_get/set_queue_info instead.
- Instrument put/get/remove structure is unified as snd_instr_header_t.
