As an extra, I broke try_to_switch_profile() into smaller
functions, because the two levels of loops with continue
statements inside both were a bit hard to follow.
If a card is hot-plugged (which all cards will be when we load
this module before module-*-detect), make sure we don't start up
a sink with an unavailable port selected.

Generalize the availability flag in order to be used beyond the scope of
ports.
However, pa_port_availability_t is left unchanged to avoid modifying the
protocol and the client API. This should be replaced by pa_available_t
after a validation phase of this new generic enum type.
In practice there is always at least one profile, and I
don't think there will ever be cards without profiles.
Therefore, I added assertions to pa_card_new() stating that
the card new data must always contain at least one profile.
Now a lot of code can be simplified, because it's guaranteed
that the profiles hashmap and the active_profile field are
always non-NULL.
For switching profiles, we are a little more cautious, only switch
from an unavailable port to an available one. Profile switching is
mainly used for HDMI/DisplayPort, and this is to avoid switching from
analog to HDMI/DP when it becomes available.

While developing the new UI we had to ask ourselves the question of whether
"speakers" should be considered available when headphones are plugged in.
In most cases, they are not available and therefore we should list them
as such.
OTOH, we don't want unplugging the headphones to be considered an act of
wanting to use the speakers (the user might prefer HDMI), and there might
be line-outs that keeps the speakers from unmuting anyway. So, at this point,
I think the most reasonable would be to make the speakers have
PA_PORT_AVAILABLE_NO when headphones are plugged in and
PA_PORT_AVAILABLE_UNKNOWN when they are not. But we might want to revisit
this decision once we have the priority lists up and running.
The same reasoning applies for "Internal Mic", which should become unavailable
when any other mic is plugged in.

This module tries to switch to a port when availability changes to
"YES", and tries to switch away when availability changes to "NO".
Once there is a priority list infrastructure in place and ready,
this functionality might be redundant, but this will do as an
interim solution.
