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.

pa_tagstruct_new() is called either with no data, i.e. (NULL, 0)
to create a dynamic tagstruct or with a pointer to fixed data
introduce a new function pa_tagstruct_new_fixed() for the latter case

FSF addresses used in PA sources are no longer valid and rpmlint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.
A recent patch broke the build on FreeBSD, which does not have
HAVE_CREDS defined. Also, make sure any attempts to enable the
srbchannel on such architectures fail.

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.

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)
Move the mainloop to monotonic based time events.
Introduces 4 helper functions:
pa_{context,core}_rttime_{new,restart}(), that fill correctly a
timeval with the rtclock flag set if the mainloop supports it.
Both mainloop-test and mainloop-test-glib works with rt and timeval
based time events. PulseAudio and clients should be fully functional.
This patch has received several iterations, and this one as been
largely untested.
