Wim Taymans 5de7898808 node: implement activation
Make an eventfd for each node and listen for events when the node
is activated.
Reorganize some graphs links to make it possible to activiate nodes
by signaling the eventfd
Pass the peer node to each remote node and let the remote node
directly activate the peer when needed.
Let each node signal the driver node when finished.
With this we don't need to go through the daemon to schedule the
graph, nodes will simply activate eachother. We only go to the
server when there is a server node to schedule.
Keep stats about the state of each node and the time it was
triggered, running and finished.

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.
