f366167278 settings: remove link.min-buffers option again
The min should always be 1. We have other ways of bumping the number of
buffers to 2, like the ASYNC allocation flag which we can set if we are
also doing some async scheduling. We could make this an option later.

Otherwise, we would also allocate 2 buffers by default between the mixer
and the node, which is unnecessary.

dbedd09d42 settings: add link.min-buffers option
Add link.min-buffers option to set the minimum amount of buffers to
create for links. Set this by default to 2 because we really need two
now in case the sink xruns and does async mixing.

Make this an option because in low-memory cases and when xruns are not
expected, we can set this to 1.

cddea858d9 context: add context.modules.allow-empty property
false by default, when true, no warning will be logged when the
context.modules in the config is empty. This can be useful when the
application wants to load all the modules itself.

0e380de809 conf: improve matching rules a bit more
Handle "null", null, !null, "!null", !"null" and "!\"null\""

add some more cases.

7e9e261fa6 conf: support property rules
Add pw_conf_section_update_props_rules() that will not only update the
properties of a section but wil also apply rules in section.rules and
match against the context properties.

Use this by default when using pw_context_conf_update_props().

Add a new method to get a string name of the VM type. Place the
cpu.vm.name in the context properties.

This makes it possible to deprecate the vm.overrides with something more
flexible based on rules. Update the conf files and docs to refect this.

84af13a10b settings: add default.clock.quantum-floor property
Remove some of the hardcoded values (the absolute smallest buffer size,
independent on the sample rate) to a config option. Set it to the
default value of 4, like what it was before.

Change the hardcoded absolute lowest limit to 1 because anything else
does not make sense.

Enforce the quantum-floor when calculating the final graph quantum.

31b387f269 bluez5: add per-device option for BAP unicast stream group ID
Add some option to set manually group IDs of unicast streams
of devices.

Intel controllers don't appear to support more than one group at a time,
but in principle this can be done.

fd58eec7f8 doc: add reference docs + index for config and env variables
Add reference documentation for configuration settings & node/device
properties.  We should have boring & exhaustive reference lists of all
the options, and an index where they can be looked up as needed.

The content is mostly stolen from the Wiki.

Add pipewire-client.conf.5, pipewire-jack.conf.5, and pipewire-device.7
that try to explain all available configuration settings for native/ALSA/JACK
clients, and parameters & properties devices.

Expand pipewire.conf.5 and pipewire-pulse.conf.5 with lists of supported
properties. Also explain environment variables.

Doxygen doesn't have an indexing mechanism suitable for configuration
settings, so add a simple one using an input filter and use it here.

Tweak styling a bit.
