The reference volume is to be used as reference volume for stored stream
volumes. Previously if a new stream was created the relative volume was
taken relatively to the virtual device volume. Due to the flat volume
logic this could then be fed back to the virtual device volume.
Repeating the whole story over and over would result in a device volume
that would go lower, and lower and lower.
This patch introduces a 'reference' volume for each sink which stays
unmodified by stream volume changes even if flat volumes are used. It is
only modified if the sink volumes are modified directly by the user.

* abstract credential APis a little bit by introducing HAVE_CREDS and a structure pa_creds
* rework credential authentication
* fix module-volume-restore and friends for usage in system-wide instance
* remove loopback= argument from moulde-*-protocol-tcp since it is a superset of listen= and usually a bad idea anyway since the user shouldn't load the TCP module at all if he doesn't want remote access
* rename a few variables in the jack modules to make sure they don't conflict with symbols defined in the system headers
* add server address for system-wide daemons to the default server list for the the client libs
* update todo

* add PA_ prefixes to all global #defines
* modify auth-by-creds: define a new group "pulse-access" which is used for authentication
* add proper privilige dropping when running in --system mode
* create runtime directory once on startup and not by each module seperately

* modify pa_sink_input_new() to take initial volume settings as argument
* call pa_sink_input_set_volume() when changing stream volume in protocol-esound.c to make sure that subscribe events are issued properly
