This gives a quick introduction to how the pulsesink/pulsesrc code
interacts with the pa_threaded_mainloop that we start up to communicate
with the server.
A bug in PulseAudio causes PA_STREAM_START_MUTED to be rejected on
record streams. Until this is fixed upstream, we mute the stream
manually at startup. Based on a patch by Alban Browaeys
<prahal@yahoo.com>.

When we start and renegotiate, there is a moment where the stream is created but
not yet connected. Make sure all functions deal with this situation correctly
instead of erroring out.

When get_time is called but we are not yet negotiated, return 0 instead of
posting an error. It's possible that the base class is still negotiating when
our get_time is called.
This makes sure that we:
a) Destroy an existing stream if a negotiate() request comes in: this is
required when receiving a downstream renegotiation request after a
stream has been created.
b) Create a new stream on prepare(): this is required since we do a
setcaps() in negotiate(), which causes the stream to be dropped by a
ringbuffer release() call (this does not happen during first negotiation
since the release is only done on a running ringbuffer). The subsequent
call to ringbuffer acquire() fails because the stream was lost on
release().

This itereates over the GstAudioInfo to set invalid channel positions
rather than use memset() which works right now because it assumes that
GST_AUDIO_CHANNEL_POSITION_INVALID is -1.
Post the notify outside of the pa_lock to avoid a deadlock caused by basesrc
calling get_time with the object lock.
Reset the clock on connect.
Post clock-lost and clock-provide messages.

pa_stream_* functions return negative on error, despite the defines
for error codes being positive.
I only got to repro the error twice, so I'm not sure 100% sure this
fixes the issue (the negative var being uninitialized after returning
from pa_stream_get_latency).

Some possible FIXMEs remaining in the audio parser getcaps functions.
PulseAudio 1.0 supports per-source-output volumes, and this exposes the
functionality via the GstStreamVolume interface.
When compiled against pre-1.0 PulseAudio, the interface is not
implemented, and the "volume" or "mute" properties are not available.
This bit of ugliness will go away when we can depend on PulseAudio 1.0
or greater.

Sine the base class now does the negotiation from the streaming thread we have
to be careful and check if the stream is ready before changing its corked state.
