Since playerPlay() already calls playerStop(), we can remove its
invocation of playerStop() from playPlaylistOrderNumber().

We can also make playerStop a static function.

There are no nested queue locks in mpd, thus replace the locked checks
in playerQueueLock(), playerQueueUnlock() with assertions.

There is no caller of these two functions which locks the player
queue; replace the playerQueueUnlock() call with an assertion.

All (indirect) callers of queueSong() ensure that the queue state is
BLANK, so there is no need to check it in queueSong() again.  As a
side effect, queueSong() cannot fail anymore, and can return void.
Also, playlist_queueError and all its error handling can go away.

playerKill() was marked as deprecated, but it seems like a good idea
to do proper cleanup in all threads (e.g. for usable valgrind
results).  Introduce the command "EXIT" which makes the player thread
exit cleanly.

playerWait() stops the player thread (twice!) and closes the output
device.  It should be well enough to just send CLOSE_AUDIO, without
STOP.

This requires a tiny change to the player thread code: make it break
when CLOSE_AUDIO is sent.

Again, remove file descriptor parameters, which are not actually
used.  These functions can also be converted to return void.

Most player*() functions do not actually use the file descriptor, and
always return 0 (success).  Eliminate them to get a leaner interface.

It was possible for the decoder thread to go into an endless loop
(flac and oggflac decoders): when a "STOP" command arrived, the Read()
callback would return 0, but the EOF() callback returned false.  Fix:
when decoder_get_command()!=NONE, return EOF==true.

sample_size is a variable which is computed at compile time.  Declare
it "static const", so the compiler can optimize it away.

Storing local configuration in global (static) variables is obviously
a bad idea.  Move all those variables into the JackData struct,
including the locks.

There is only one caller of freeJackData() left: jack_finishDriver().
This function is called by the mpd core, and is called exactly once
for every successful jack_initDriver().  We do not need to clear
audioOutput->data, since this variable is invalidated anyway.

Over the lifetime of the jack AudioOutput object, we want a single
valid JackData object, so we can persistently store data there
(configuration etc.).  Allocate JackData in jack_initDriver().  After
that, we can safely remove all audioOutput->data==NULL checks (and
replace them with assertions).

No need to destroy the JackData object when an error occurs, since
jack_finishDriver() already frees it.  Only deinitialize the jack
library, introduce freeJackClient() for that, and move code from
freeJackData().

Prepare the next patch: make the "!jd" check independent of the
jd->client initialization.  This way we can change the "jd"
initialization semantics later.

connect_jack() invokes freeJackData() in every error handler, although
its caller also invokes this function after a failure.  We can save a
lot of lines in connect_jack() by removing these redundant
freeJackData() invocations.

When we introduced decoder_read(), we added code which aborts the read
operation when a decoder command arrives.  Several plugins however did
not expect that when they were converted to decoder_read().  Add
proper checks to the mp3 and flac decoder plugins.

The code said "decoder_command==STOP" because that was a conversion
from the old "dc->stop" test.  As we can now check for all commands in
one test, we can simply rewrite that to decoder_command!=NONE.

Also introduce MUTEFRAME_NONE; previously, the code used "0".

This flag is used internally; it is set by decoder_seek_where(), and
indicates that the decoder plugin has begun the seek process.  It is
used for the case that the decoder plugin has to read data during the
seek process.  Before this patch, that was impossible, because
decoder_read() would refuse to read data unless dc->command is NONE.
This patch is kind of a dirty workaround, and needs to be redesigned
later.

The old code called can_seek() with the uninitialized pointer
"isp.is".  Has this ever worked?  Anyway, initialize "isp" first, then
call can_seek(&isp).

Move everything related to finding and initializing the WVC stream to
wavpack_open_wvc().  This greatly simplifies its error handling and
the function wavpack_streamdecode().

Return early when the player thread sent us a command.  This saves one
level of indentation.

On our way to stabilize the decoder API, we will one day remove the
input stream functions.  The most basic function, read() will be
provided by decoder_api.h with this patch.  It already contains a loop
(still with manual polling), error/eof handling and decoder command
checks.  This kind of code used to be duplicated in all decoder
plugins.

The "decoder" object reference will be used by another patch.

If the input stream is not seekable, the try_decode() function
consumes valuable data, which is not available to the decode()
function anymore.  This means that the decode() function does not
parse the header correctly.  Better skip the detection if we cannot
seek.  Or implement better buffering, something like unread() or
buffered rewind().

We need the decoder object at several places in the AAC plugin.  Add
it to mp3DecodeData, so we don't have to pass it around in every
function.

We need the decoder object at several places in the mp3 plugin.  Add
it to mp3DecodeData, so we don't have to pass it around in every
function.

The return value of audio_linear_dither() is always casted to
mpd_sint16.  Returning long does not make sense, and consumed 8 bytes
on a 64 bit platform.

The output buffer always contains mpd_sint16; declaring it with that
type saves several casts.

The previous patch removed all loop specific dependencies from the
num_samples formula; we can now calculate it before entering the loop.

The output buffer is always flushed after being appended to, which
allows us to assume it is always empty.  Always start writing at
outputBuffer, don't remember outputPtr.

The previous patch made mp3Read() flush the output buffer in every
iteration, which means we can eliminate the flush check after invoking
mp3Read().

Since we try to fill the buffer in every iteration, we assume that we
should flush the output buffer at the end of each iteration.

Fill the whole output buffer at a time by using dither_buffer()'s
ability to decode blocks.  Calculate how many samples fit into the
output buffer before each invocation.
