resampler: Support speex resampler compiled with FIXED_POINT

speex_resample_float() does not work with speex compiled with
--enable-fixed-point, because speex expects its float input
to be normalized to ±32768 instead of the more usual ±1.

It is possible to fix speex_resample_float(), as demonstrated at
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pulseaudio-discuss/2014-May/020617.html
However, a better idea is to avoid using the speex-float resampler and
the associated s16 <-> float conversions that speex will immediately undo
internally if it is known that speex has been compiled with FIXED_POINT.
So, transparently change speex-float-* to speex-fixed-* in that case.
