It seems git managed to mess up a git-am with a patch from
David which moved where this function was called element_probe
to within itself (recursive which could normally lead to an
infinite loop, but as it was now never called from anywhere else,
this didn't happen).
Thank you to Maarten for spotting and following up the issue.
Now you can add required-any to elements in a path and the path
will be valid as long as at least one of the elements are present.
Also you can have required, required-any and required-absent in
element options, causing a path to be unsupported if an option is
(not) present (simplified example: to skip line in path if
"Capture source" doesn't have a "Line In" option).

Add front mic, rear mic, and docking line-in. These are likely to be
present on modern hda chips, for reference see

When creating synthesized paths, pa_alsa_path_set_new() created duplicate
elements for each path, and one of the duplicate elements would be marked as
required absent. That made path probing fail. While debugging this, I noticed
also that pa_alsa_path_synthesize() didn't initialize p->last_element properly.
If an element does not control some channels assume they are 0dB in
comparison to the other elements, i.e. do not influence the volume at
all. Previously we were assuming they were as high as the highest of the
channels we do control.
We need to make sure that having both input and output weighs more for
selecting the default profile than a channel map that matches the
default channel map has.

Completely rework mixer logic. This now allows controlling a full set of
elements from a single sink's volume slider/mute button.
This also introduces sink and source "ports" that can be used to choose
different input or output ports with the UI. (i.e. "mic"/"line-in" or
"speaker"/"headphones".
The mixer paths and device maps are now configered in external
configuration files and can be tweaked as necessary.
