This pulls a2dp-codecs.h from BlueZ which contains the capabilities
structures for SBC and MPEG. We currently have these manually added to
ipc.h, so pulling this header makes our files identical to upstream.
This update pulls in commit c495077c [1] to fix a build error.

sbc: better compatibility with ARM thumb/thumb2
ARM assembly optimizations fail to compile in thumb mode, but are fine
for thumb2. Update ifdefs in the code to make use of ARM assembly only
when it is safe and also make sure that no optimizations are missed
when compiling for thumb2.
The problem was reported by Paul Menzel:
https://tango.0pointer.de/pipermail/pulseaudio-discuss/2011-February/009022.html
This patch is tested with OpenEmbedded using `minimal-uclibc` for `MACHINE = "at91sam9260ek"`.
Note that changes to ipc.h from 8f3ef04b had to be manually reapplied.

It's perfectly normal for BlueZ to disable some endpoint types, so printing a
log message at error level isn't a good idea.
For facilitating an informative message in case some endpoint type is disabled,
the send_and_add_to_pending() function interface is also changed to be more
generic (the pa_bluetooth_device pointer is replaced with a void pointer).
Mostly warnings about unused stuff.
Furthermore, the first hunk is a fix for the change in 177948a6.
Finally, comment in AEC_dtd was translated and the code simplified slightly.

The optimized filter gets enabled when the code is compiled
with -mcpu=/-march options set to target the processors which
support ARMv6 instructions. This code is also disabled when
NEON is used (which is a lot better alternative). For additional
safety ARM EABI is required and thumb mode should not be used.

In the case of scale factors calculation optimizations, the inline
assembly code has instructions which update flags register, but
"cc" was not mentioned in the clobber list. When optimizing code,
gcc theoretically is allowed to do a comparison before the inline
assembly block, and a conditional branch after it which would lead
to a problem if the flags register gets clobbered. While this is
apparently not happening in practice with the current versions of
gcc, the clobber list needs to be corrected.
Regarding the other inline assembly blocks. While most likely it
is actually unnecessary based on quick review, "cc" is also added
there to the clobber list because it should have no impact on
performance in practice. It's kind of cargo cult, but relieves
us from the need to track the potential updates of flags register
in all these places.
By using SBC_ALWAYS_INLINE trick, the implementation of 'sbc_calculate_bits'
function is split into two branches, each having 'subband' variable value
known at compile time. It helps the compiler to generate more optimal code
by saving at least one extra register, and also provides more obvious
opportunities for loops unrolling.

Previous variant was basically derived from C and MMX implementations.
Now new variant makes use of 'vmax' instruction, which is available in
NEON and can do this job faster. The same method for calculating scale
factors is also used in 'sbc_calc_scalefactors_j_neon'.

The code for scale factors calculation with joint stereo support has
been moved to a separate function. It can get platform-specific
SIMD optimizations later for best possible performance.
But even this change in C code improves performance because of the
use of __builtin_clz() instead of loops similar to what was done
to sbc_calc_scalefactors earlier. Also technically it does loop
unrolling by processing two channels at once, which might be either
good or bad for performance (if the registers pressure is increased
and more data is spilled to memory). But the benchmark from 32-bit
x86 system (pentium-m) shows that it got clearly faster:

This prevents overflows and audible artefacts for the audio files which
originally had loudness maximized. Music from audio CD disks is an
example of such files, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudness_war
Buffer position in X array was not always 16-bytes aligned.
Strict 16-byte alignment is strictly required for powerpc altivec
simd optimizations because altivec does not have support for
unaligned vector loads at all.
NREC stands for Noise Reduction and Echo Cancelation, it can be changed
at any point by the headset.
When set to "1" indicates that those algorithms shall be enabled by
default and "0" means the headset probably have them active so they
should be disabled in PA side.
Use minimum bitpool configured to get the maximum block_size possible,
also remove checks for how much has been written when decoding sbc frames
since the block size may change due to bitpool changes.
When audio skips it could be that there is some bandwidth limitation in
the link e.g. headset doesn't support EDR (< 2.0), and by reducing
the bitpool it may find a better rate that either prevent the skips
completely or at least reduce them.
Acquire now return input and output MTU of the file descriptor so it is
no longer necessary to get those after acquiring the fd, which less round
trips and faster response time when switching profiles.
Instead <pulsecore/poll.h> should be included. That file includes poll.h on
platform where it is appropriate. Also remove some unnecessary <ioctl.h>
includes.
A2DP spec allow bitpool changes midstream which is why sbc configuration
has a range of values for bitpool that the encoder can use and decoder
must support.
Bitpool changes do not affect the state of encoder/decoder so they don't
need to be reinitialize when this happens, so the impact is fairly small,
what it does change is the frame length so encoders may change the
bitpool to use the link more efficiently.
This is needed to better support out of tree builds (including
distcheck) and to ensure the necessary folders are created in the
build tree on configure and also works around an intl-tools bug
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/intltool/+bug/605826)
The Makefile.am's used are minimal (and in some cases completely
blank). At present they do not include anything interesting
with the majority of the real work still done by the monolitic
src/Makefile.am
It may make sense to start splitting out src/Makefile.am into
smaller chunks but this commit makes the minimum changes to address
the issues that result from using make distcheck and other out of
tree builds.
Note: This 'breaks' the ability to type make in e.g. the src/modules
folder and have all of PA rebuilt accordingly (this is because the
static Makefiles previously present just did a "make -C ..") which
was purportedly for use in emacs. But I'm sure there will be a better
and more robust way to configure emacs to do your builds properly if
this behaviour is still desirable.
Create the 'Handsfree Gateway' profile for bluetooth cards and add
filters for 'org.bluez.HandsfreeGateway' to the discover module so
module-bluetooth-device is loaded with the correct profile when a
Handsfree Gateway connects to bluetoothd (in this case bluetoothd
is acting as the headset).
When an GetProperties() reply arrives after we already deleted the
device structure for it make sure we don't accidentaly touch the
invalidated object.
