This patch fixes the following error:
$ pacat --file-format=ogg -r test.ogg
Failed to open audio file.
$ parecord sep.flac
Failed to open audio file.
libsndfile errors out if a WAV or OGG file is set to have anything but

If only part of the buffer is written into stdout by stdout_callback,
the buffer_index variable is increased by the number of written bytes,
buffer_length variable is decreased while the allocated buffer size
remains the same. That suggests that the current allocated size is
calculated as (buffer_index + buffer_length). However the current
stream_read_callback implementation writes new data to the start of the
buffer and allocates too little space, so that (buffer + buffer_index +
buffer_length - 1) could actully point outside of the allocated buffer.
Current pacat code reads whatever available from STDIN and writes
it directly to the playback stream. A minimal buffer is created
for each read operation; no further reads are then allowed unless
earlier read buffer has been fully consumed by a stream write.
While quite simple, this model breaks upon the new requirements of
writing only frame-aligned data to the stream (commits #1 and #2).
The kernel read syscall can return a length much smaller than the
frame-aligned size requested, leading to invalid unaligned writes.
This can easily be reproduced by choosing a starved STDIN backend:
pacat /dev/random pa_stream_write() failed: EINVAL
echo 1234 | pacat pa_stream_write() failed: EINVAL
or by playing an incomplete WAV file in raw, non-paplay, mode.
So guard against such incomplete kernel reads by writing only in
frame-aligned sizes, while caching any trailing partial frame for
subsequent writes.
Other operation modes are not affected. Non-raw paplay playback is
handled by libsndfile, ensuring complete reads, and recording mode
just writes to the STDOUT fd without any special needs.

Users reported pacat crashes when playing certain multi-channel
audio. For example:
pacat --channels=2 /dev/zero works
pacat --channels=3 /dev/zero pa_stream_write() failed: EINVAL
pacat --channels=4 /dev/zero works
pacat --channels=5 /dev/zero pa_stream_write() failed: EINVAL
pacat audio playback is pipe-like, from STDIN to PA write stream.
Meanwhile STDIN "ready to read" events got regularly triggered
before the write stream was even created, or at moments where the
stream could not accept any more audio.
In these out-of-sync cases, the write stream could not report the
appropriate buffer lengths it accepts, thus a default of 4K bytes
was chosen -- compatible by luck with some channel counts and
incompatible with others.
Instead of choosing a faulty default in these scenarios, mute the
the STDIN events until the write stream is available & queriable.

FSF addresses used in PA sources are no longer valid and rpmlint
generates numerous warnings during packaging because of this.
This patch changes all FSF addresses to FSF web page according to
the GPL how-to: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
Done automatically by sed-ing through sources.
pa_silence_memory() pulls sample-util as a dependency, so it had to
be moved from libpulsecore to libpulsecommon. sample-util in turn
pulls some more stuff.
Calling pa_read() and pa_write() seems more appropriate since they deal better
with platform specific issues. This doesn't actually fix any open issue since
only stdio is affected but it seems more future proof.
Without this reading from stdin will eventually end with EOF (if there happens
to be a newline sign in the stream), because read() returns 0.
This patch fixes raw data input and piping to pacat on Windows.
Pacat remembers the number of cork requests, and then cork/uncork the stream
accordingly.
With this change, it makes below test script work correctly:
pacat -p --property=media.role="music" <long-sound> &
sleep 2
pacat -p --property=media.role="phone" <short-sound>

Initial idea by Lu Guanqun, but modified by Colin Guthrie (so blame
me if it's broken)
Second version after Tanu's feedback
TODO:
- notify client that volume control is disabled
- change sink rate in passthrough mode if needed
- automatic detection of passthrough mode instead of hard

Move the mainloop to monotonic based time events.
Introduces 4 helper functions:
pa_{context,core}_rttime_{new,restart}(), that fill correctly a
timeval with the rtclock flag set if the mainloop supports it.
Both mainloop-test and mainloop-test-glib works with rt and timeval
based time events. PulseAudio and clients should be fully functional.
This patch has received several iterations, and this one as been
largely untested.

This adds proper channel map handling when reading/writing audio files.
This allows surround .WAV files to be played with the right channel
setup automatically.
This also merges paplay into pacat and adds recording into formatted
files to pacat.
