newer pulseaudio.
Fixes: #567794
* Hook pulsesink's volume property up with the stream volume -- not the
sink volume in PA.
* Read the device description directly from the sink instead of going
via the mixer.
* Properly implement _reset() methods for both sink and source to avoid
deadlocks when shutting down a pipeline.
* Replace all simple pa_threaded_mainloop_wait() by proper loops to
guarantee that we wait for the right event in case multiple events are
fired. While this is not strictly necessary in many cases it
certainly is more correct and makes me sleep better at night.
* Replace CHECK_DEAD_GOTO macros with proper functions
* Extend the number of supported channels to 32 since that is the actual
limit in PA.
* Get rid of _dispose() methods since we don't need them.
* Increase the volume property upper limit of the sink to 1000.
* Reset function pointers after we disconnect a stream/context. Better
fix for bug 556986.
* Reset the state of the element properly if open/prepare fails
* Cork the PA stream when the pipeline is paused. This allows the PA
* daemon to
close audio device on pause and thus save a bit of power.
* Set PA stream properties based on GST tags such as GST_TAG_TITLE,
GST_TAG_ARTIST, and so on.

Link to properties. Correct titles for examples. Document a few trivial cases. Keep lists in section file and docs/plugins/Makefile.am alphabetically ordered. Fix warnings that gtk-doc points out.
Introduce a new max-delay property that can only
be set before going to PLAYING or PAUSED. This
is used to limit the maximum delay and is set
to the current delay by default.
Using this will make sure that we have enough data
in our internal ringbuffer for the echo. With dynamic
reallocation of the ringbuffer as used before silence
could've been used as the echo directly after setting
a new delay.

If libsoup-gnome is found use this as it will give us
the GNOME proxy configuration. Otherwise use normal
libsoup.
The GNOME proxy configuration will only be used if
the proxy properties are not set on souphttpsrc
and if the http_proxy environment variable is not
set.
Fixes bug #552140.
Save some allocations if the echo delay is increased often
during playback by always allocating enough memory to hold
data up to the next complete second, i.e. in the worst case
allocate memory for one additional second.
Add a note to the docs that audioecho's reverb will
sound metallic. This happens because for a real
reverb filter additional filtering is necessary.
Also note which values should be used for the delay
property to get an echo effect.
A recent commit added video/x-raw-gray support to videocrop. However
this lets the videocrop unit test fail. Because videotestsrc can't
generate this format.
The element can add an echo and a simple reverb effect to
an audio stream but for a real reverb filter it would need
some additional filtering to prevent a metallic-sounding
result.
