Now that we have the necessary infrastructure to memexport and
mempimport a memfd memblock, extend that support higher up in the
chain with pstreams.
A PA endpoint can now _transparently_ send a memfd memblock to the
other end by simply calling pa_pstream_send_memblock() – provided
the block's memfd pool was earlier registered with the pstream.
If the pipe does not support memfd transfers, we fall back to
sending the block's full data instead of just its reference.
** Further details:
A single pstream connection usually transfers blocks from multiple
pools including the server's srbchannel mempool, the client's
audio data mempool, and the server's global core mempool.
If these mempools are memfd-backed, we now require registering
them with the pstream before sending any blocks they cover. This
is done to minimize fd passing overhead and avoid fd leaks.
Moreover, to support all these pools without hard-coding their
number or nature in the Pulse communication protocol itself, a new
REGISTER_MEMFD_SHMID command is introduced. That command can be
sent _anytime_ during the pstream's lifetime and is used for
creating on demand SHM ID to memfd mappings.

FSF addresses used in PA sources are no longer valid and rpmlint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.
This increments protocol version to v30 and adds two new commands
to enable and disable an shm ringbuffer, as well as client side
implementation.

Previously relative cookie paths were searched from the home
directory, now they are searched from the config home directory. This
fixes the problem that XDG_CONFIG_HOME didn't have effect on cookie
paths.

This includes updating the native protocol and the client API.
A new command was added to allow setting the latency offset.
Also the card list command now shows the latency offset if there
are ports available.
Update protocol to 27.
This piggy backs onto the previous changes for protocol 22 and
thus does not bump the version. This and the previous commits should be
seen as mostly atomic. Apologies for any bisecting issues this causes
(although I would expect these to be minimal)
