The event is emitted by a node that is not a driver but wants the graph
to be scheduled. The command is sent to the driver and suggest that the
graph be scheduled.
Subdirectories buffer, control, debug, monitor, pod, support and utils, others
are still missing. Headers are grouped either per subdirectory (e.g. buffer/
gets added to group spa_buffer) or per-file (e.g. spa_json is a separate
group), whatever seemed like the most sensible approach.
Add a port_info event. With this, we get updates to ports pushed to
us, which is more convenient and also allows for better dynamic
add/remove of ports.
We don't need to the PortChanged event anymore
We can remove the get_port_ids/get_n_ports/port_get_info methods.
Update plugins
SPA_ID_* -> SPA_TYPE_*. We use 'type' for all registered types.
ID refers to either a registered type or an enum.
Improve introspection of object ids. Make 0 an invalid enum and
use it to look up the object id type.
Move some type-info files together.
Swap type and id of the object, we first specify the type and then
the id because the meaning of the id depends on the object type.
Do not use dynamic types anymore. The reason is that it's difficult:
- to maintain a shared type database over a network.
- the extra overhead when translating between processes and for
maintaining the translation tables.
- race conditions in translating in RT-threads, this is a problem
because we want to make event streams.
We now have simple enums with types and extension points for all
types. This is also nicer to use in general.
We don't need the mapper anymore or pass strings around as types.
There is a parallel type info system to get more info about ids and
enums and their hierarchy. It can also be used for debugging.
