Align RX of streams in same ISO group:
- Ensure all streams in ISO group have same target latency also for BAP
Client
- Determine rate matching to ISO group clock from RX times of all
streams in the group
- Based on this, compute nominal packet RX times, and feed them to
decode-buffer instead of the real RX time. This is enough for
sub-sample level sync.
- Customise buffer overrun handling for ISO so that it drops data to
arrive exactly at the target, for faster convergence at RX start
The ISO clock matching is done based on kernel-provided packet RX times,
so it has unknown offset from the actual ISO clock, probably a few ms.
Current kernels (6.17) do not provide anything better to use for the
clock matching, and doing it properly appears to be controller
vendor-defined (if possible at all).
Use TX timestamps to get accurate reading of queue length and latency on
kernel + controller side.
This is new kernel BT feature, so requires kernel with the necessary
patches, available currently only in bluetooth-next/master branch.
Enabling Poll Errqueue kernel experimental Bluetooth feature is also
required for this.
Use the latency information to mitigate controller issues where ISO
streams are desynchronized due to tx problems or spontaneously when some
packets that should have been sent are left sitting in the queue, and
transmission is off by a multiple of the ISO interval. This state is
visible in the latency information, so if we see streams in a group have
persistently different latencies, drop packets to resynchronize them.
Also make corrections if the kernel/controller queues get too long, so
that we don't have too big latency there.
Since BlueZ watches the same socket for errors, and TX timestamps arrive
via the socket error queue, we need to set BT_POLL_ERRQUEUE in addition
to SO_TIMESTAMPING so that BlueZ doesn't think TX timestamps are errors.

When a sink contributing to an ISO CIG does not have data, output
silence for it, as long as at least one sink in the CIG is running.
Only if writes to sockets fail, pause all streams to reset
synchronization.
This way we write exactly the same number of packets for each CIS at the
same time, which probably is the best tested configuration in BT
adapters and devices. We also don't then have to pause output if some
sinks are not running or miss their timing, as we generate silence on
the fly.
When using iso-io, have it initialize the codec instance, and have
media-sink uses that instance, so that silence and actual audio are
encoded with the same codec.
Resynchronize ISO streams on playback (re)start, so the stream positions
are aligned immediately. This is better than relying on rate matching
to correct any offsets.
For ISO server sockets, the QOS struct from getsockopt contains values
with different meaning from ISO client socket. Get the values via DBus
instead, which is right in both cases.
Add factored out helper for ISO socket I/O.
ISO sockets need synchronization of writes and audio position for
different stream fds in the same isochronous group, and it's easier to
separate out the part that coordinates it.
