/*
* design decisions:
* - audioconvert converts buffers in a set of supported caps. If it supports
* a caps, it supports conversion from these caps to any other caps it
* supports. (example: if it does A=>B and A=>C, it also does B=>C)
* - audioconvert does not save state between buffers. Every incoming buffer is
* converted and the converted buffer is pushed out.
* conclusion:
* audioconvert is not supposed to be a one-element-does-anything solution for
* audio conversions.
