Wim Taymans 0cdc3dce0b stream: remove client-stream
Use an adapter instead of the client-stream. This means we run
the audioconverters and resamplers in the client instead of the
pipewire daemon. It also allows us to implement the audio mixing
correctly in the capture client.

The only pending piece is that we now wake up the client with the
period of the server. Maybe we can later optimize that and
accumulate/split buffers before waking the client.

This probably needs fixing with video..

PipeWire
--------

PipeWire is a server and user space API to deal with multimedia
pipelines. This includes:

  - Making available sources of video (such as from a capture devices or
       application provided streams) and multiplexing this with
       clients.
  - Accessing sources of video for consumption.
  - Generating graphs for audio and video processing.

Nodes in the graph can be implemented as separate processes,
communicating with sockets and exchanging multimedia content using fd
passing.

Building
--------

Pipewire uses the Meson and Ninja build system to compile. If you're not
familiar with these tools, the included "autogen.sh" script will
automatically run the correct meson/ninja commands, and output a Makefile.
It follows that there are two methods to build Pipewire, however both rely
on Meson and Ninja to actually perform the compilation:

$ ./autogen.sh
$ make

or the Meson/Ninja native method:

$ meson build
$ cd build
$ ninja

You can see the available meson options in meson_options.txt file.
