Multimedia processing graphs
Add a permissions call that can be used to update the permissions of global objects. This can be used to set specific permissions on certain objects, hide objects and define the permissions on new objects. The system is quite generic so that we can extend it later with more complicated match rules or so. |

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
