Make a function that can initialize raw audio info from a dict and fill
in the defaults. We can use this in many of the modules when the audio
format is parsed.
Use the helper instead of duplicating the same code.
Also add some helpers to parse a json array of uint32_t
Move some functions to convert between type name and id.
Add spa_json_begin_array/object to replace
spa_json_init+spa_json_begin_array/object
This function is better because it does not waste a useless spa_json
structure as an iterator. The relaxed versions also error out when the
container is mismatched because parsing a mismatched container is not
going to give any results anyway.
Our current AES67 sender setup requires that that PTP driver drive the
entire graph. This adds support for allowing the AES67 RTP sink to be
driven by an arbitrary driver, while still using the PTP driver for
sending data on the network.
When aes67.driver-group is specified a pw_filter is created with no
ports, node.always-process = true and node.group set to the
aes67.driver-group. When set to PTP, this gives us process callbacks at
the PTP rate which we use to get the current PTP time in the RTP sender
by interpolating the clock snapshots from the pw-filter.
Implementation ideas from Wim Taymans. Co-authored with Sanchayan Maity.

We allow a quantum of jitter in the write timestamp. The previous value
of 32 seems to be empirically determined, using the actual quantum
allows us to reason about this better.
32 bits are enough, and additionally this also fixes an incorrect
format string, which caused the default `audio.rate` to be
incorrectly set on some platforms, such as 32-bit arm ones.
Fixes#4080
Expose the acquire_loop/release_loop functions and use them in the
modules.
Make sure the nodes created from the module use the same data loop as
the module. We need to ensure this because otherwise, the nodes might
be scheduled on different data loops and the invoke or timer logic will
fail.
Make a new function to set the rtp stream in the error state.
When we fail to start the stream, set the error state. Otherwise (like
when we try to use an invalid interface name) the socket create will
fail but the stream will still try to send data to the invalid socket.
Make a method to get the current time to compare agains the pw_time-now
field. This is currently CLOCK_MONOTONIC but make this into a method
so that we can more easily change it later.
When multiple packets need to be flushed (because sess.latency is set
and larger than ptime) use a timer to space the packets uniformly in
the current quantum to avoid bursts.
See !1873
Use the sess.latency.msec also for the sender and use it to control the
NODE_LATENCY. Make it a float to be in line with the other time values.
Set is to a default of ptime, which was what it used to be.
This makes it possible to set the ptime to a smaller value than the
sess.latency.msec so that we send out multiple packets per quantum.
This will result in some bursty output for now but with a timer that can
be improved later.
Update the docs a little, mention the new rtp.ptime and rtp.frametime.
This should be done to match packet size requirements (e.g. 1 ms) while allowing user's software to run at higher buffer size to not stutter.
This will require scheduling multiple rtp_audio_flush_packets calls per one rtp_audio_process_capture call
This method can be used to access the param_changed method of the
underlying pw_stream.
Also adds new public functions rtp_stream_set_param and
rtp_stream_update_params which plum things through to pw_stream_set_param
and pw_stream_update_params respectively.
