Rename empty.noise -> dither.noise and always add this amount of noise
when > 0. This also adds the noise to silent sounds, not only when
nothing is connected because that would also be a problem when an amp
needs to be kept alive with an non-0 signal.
Rename noise -> dither because we can use this also for dithering later.
See #705
Add an empty.noise option that specifies the number of bits to
use for noise when the input signal is pure silence.
Some amplifiers can go into suspend mode pretty easily when they
get pure silence. With empty.noise = 1, audioconvert will now generate
a bitpattern that can keep those amplifiers alive, together with
disabling suspend in the session manager.
Fixes#705
Since 01c6fd0a88 the
minimum required meson version is 0.59.0, and since
meson 0.58.0, `get_variable()` on a dependency object
accepts a positional argument. The "type" of variable
(internal, pkgconfig, etc.) in that case does not need
to be specified explicitly.
Use `meson.project_{build,source}_root()` instead of
`meson.{build,source}_root()` because those functions
do not work as expected when used inside a subproject,
and they have been deprecated in meson 0.56.0.
For SPA libraries that we link against elsewhere in the tree, declare a
declare a dependency "foo_dep" for that library that specifies how to
link to it. Then use that dependency in the various targets.
This removes the knowledge of how to link with the library from the
target which can treat it as just another dependency.
In the case of optional libraries (e.g. the journal support lib) we can
then use declare_dependency() to declare an empty dependencies and thus
link them unconditionally in the target.
This makes installed-tests (see commit b852b58f) do the right thing.
For build-time testing, spa/plugins/audioconvert/meson.build overrides
this with the SPA_PLUGIN_DIR environment variable, and for ad-hoc
testing by developers, pw-uninstalled.sh sets the necessary variables.

This makes it easier to test PipeWire in its "as-installed" state,
for example in an OS distribution.
The .test metadata files in ${datadir}/installed-tests/${package} are
a convention taken from GNOME's installed-tests initiative, allowing a
generic test-runner like gnome-desktop-testing to discover and run tests
in an automatic way.
The installation path ${libexecdir}/installed-tests/${package} is also
a convention borrowed from GNOME's installed-tests initiative.
In addition to the automated tests, I've installed example executables
in the same place, for manual testing. They could be separated into
a different directory if desired, but they seem like they have more
similarities with the automated tests than differences: both are there
to test that PipeWire works correctly, and neither should be relied on
for production use. Some examples are installed in deeper subdirectories
to avoid name clashes.

Add a new PortConfig parameter to configure ports of elements that
are marked with the SPA_NODE_FLAG_*_PORT_CONFIG. This is used to
configure the operation of the audioconver/audioadapter nodes and
how it should convert the internal format. We want to use the
Profile parameter only for cases where there is an enumeration of
values, like with device configuration.
Add unit tests for audioconvert and adapter to check if they handle
PortConfig correctly.
Make the media session use the PortConfig to dynamically configure
the device nodes.
Remove audio-dsp, it is not used anymore and can/should be implemented
with a simple audioconvert spa node now and some PortConfig.
Pass some state to convert and channelmix functions. This makes it
possible to select per channel optimized convert functions but
also makes it possible to implement noise shaping later.
Pass the channelmix matrix and volume in the state.
Handle specialized 2 channel s16 -> f32 conversion
Add a sinc based resampler that, unlike speex, avoids memcpy and
works directly on the source data. It also allows for ssse3
optimizations and aligned loads. It will later switch to table
interpolation when doing variable rate.
Make it possible to assign an arbitary node as the port mixer.
Also remove dynamically added ports.
Improve negotiation and allocation on the mixer ports
Add some more SSE optimisations
Move float mixer from the audio dsp to the port
Remove pw_node_get_free_port() and do things more explicitly.
Handle mixer ports in client-node
