Original commit message from CVS:
this is basically a rewrite of the volume plugin:
- now uses dparams for volume and mute
- only supports signed gint16 and float (other types can be easily added but I don't think that will be required)
- "muted" property is now "mute"
- it might be faster because there are now no conditionals in the chain func
Original commit message from CVS:
* removal of //-style comments
* don't link plugins to core libs -- the versioning is done internally to the plugins with the plugin_info struct,
and symbol resolution is lazy, so we can always know if a plugin can be loaded by the plugin_info data. in theory.
