The only way for ALSA to expose a position-less multi channels is to
return an array full of SND_CHMAP_MONO. Converting this to a
GST_AUDIO_CHANNEL_POSITION_MONO array would be invalid as
GST_AUDIO_CHANNEL_POSITION_MONO is meant to be used only with one
channel.
Fix this by using GST_AUDIO_CHANNEL_POSITION_NONE which is meant to be
used for position-less channels.

The initial support for the new ALSA chmap API.
Just translate the current chmap to GstAudioChannelPosition during the
setup. No function to specify the channel map manually yet, so still
impossible to assign any non-standard positions or to configure in a
different order even if the hardware allows.

The format probing code was assuming there'd be one caps
structure for each separate width/depth combination like
we did in 0.10 all over the place: for one, we'd query
unsigned/signed formats together for the same width/height,
and we'd add the entire current structure to the probed
caps when we find a format is supported. Now that we have
all raw formats in a single structure, this is all not going
to work so well any more. We added the entire structure with
all possible formats to the caps if we support just one format.
Fix probing so that we only return the list of actually
supported raw audio formats (with native endianness) from
get_caps().

Original commit message from CVS:

There is no GST_PLUGINS_BASE_LIBS defined.
* ext/alsa/gstalsa.c:
* ext/alsa/gstalsasink.c: (gst_alsasink_delay):
* ext/alsa/gstalsasrc.c: (gst_alsasrc_delay):
Add support for ALSA 24-bit formats.
snd_pcm_delay can return an error code, especially
during XRUNS. In that case, the best we can do is assume
delay = 0.
* gst/audioconvert/Makefile.am:
Add flags from -base before any more-remote dependencies.
Original commit message from CVS:
* ext/alsa/gstalsa.c: (gst_alsa_find_device_name):
Try to get devic-name from device string first, and from handle only
as fallback (seems to yield better results and is more robust
against buggy probing code on the application side).

Improve device-name detection a bit, especially in the case where
the device is not actually open (#405020, #405024). Move common code
into gstalsa.c instead of duplicating it.
Original commit message from CVS:

Properly find the card name for whatever device was configured.
Do some better debugging.
Fixes#350784.

Original commit message from CVS:
* ext/alsa/gstalsa.c: (caps_add_channel_configuration),

like the Delta 44 (#345188).
* gst-libs/gst/audio/multichannel.c:
(gst_audio_check_channel_positions):
* gst-libs/gst/audio/multichannel.h:
API: add GST_AUDIO_CHANNEL_POSITION_NONE, which stands for an
unspecified channel position and cannot be combined with any
of the other audio channel positions; adjust position layout
checks accordingly (#345188).
Original commit message from CVS:
* ext/alsa/gstalsa.c: (caps_add_channel_configuration):
Fix typo, so that alsasink also advertises 8 channels
if that's supported (tags: can, worms, open, alsa, ph34r).
