This patch adds support to iochannel, pstream and pstream-util
to send file descriptors over a unix pipe.
Currently we don't support writing both creds and fds in the same
packet, it's either one or the other (or neither).

The file descriptors are read from the iochannel just like the creds are.
So instead of passing just creds (and creds_valid), we now pass the
entire pa_ancil struct.

To save some CPU (in low latency scenarios), don't re-enable the
"writable" event after it has succeeded. It is very likely the next
write will succeed right away too.
This means that we always need to handle EAGAIN/EWOULDBLOCK as a
successful write of 0 bytes, so I also verified that all callers to
pa_iochannel_write handled this correctly.

The check whether POSIX socket.h or WIN32 winsock2.h must be included can be
made centrally. The downside is that some functionality of e.g. arpa/inet.h is
also implemented in winsock.h, so that some files that don't use socket
functions, but do use inet.h functions, must also include pulsecore/socket.h.
(as well as arpa/inet.h)
This should make it unlikely that we loop on SIGHUP indefinitely.
Also, this makes it possible for callbacks not to process all events and
still not busy loop.
* abstract credential APis a little bit by introducing HAVE_CREDS and a structure pa_creds
* rework credential authentication
* fix module-volume-restore and friends for usage in system-wide instance
* remove loopback= argument from moulde-*-protocol-tcp since it is a superset of listen= and usually a bad idea anyway since the user shouldn't load the TCP module at all if he doesn't want remote access
* rename a few variables in the jack modules to make sure they don't conflict with symbols defined in the system headers
* add server address for system-wide daemons to the default server list for the the client libs
* update todo

* add PA_ prefixes to all global #defines
* modify auth-by-creds: define a new group "pulse-access" which is used for authentication
* add proper privilige dropping when running in --system mode
* create runtime directory once on startup and not by each module seperately

will allow us to drop the SIGPIPE check). Cache the results of the last
write()/send() to make sure that we do not issue more than necessary system
calls.
