The new class Path only holds a string pointer without being
responsible for allocation/deallocation.  The FileSystem.hxx library
accepts Path arguments instead of AllocatedPath, to avoid forcing
callers to allocate another string object.

Prepare to migrate away from GLib.  Currently, we're still using GLib
as a backend.

Replaces GLib's GError.

Migrate all callers to use Path directly, instead of doing the
conversion in each caller.

Make sure we get a UTF-8 encoded string.

Pass audio_output objects around instead of void pointers.  This will
give some more control to the plugin, and prepares for non-blocking
audio outputs.

Move the "extern" declarations from output_list.c, for more type
safety.

Better error messages.

Windows compatibility.

After we've been hit by Large File Support problems several times in
the past week (which only occur on 32 bit platforms, which I don't
have), this is yet another attempt to fix the issue.

Add a "mode" argument to open_cloexec() instead.

Added the "fd_util" library, which attempts to use the new thread-safe
Linux system calls pipe2(), accept4() and the options O_CLOEXEC,
SOCK_CLOEXEC.  Without these, it falls back to FD_CLOEXEC, which is
not thread safe.

This is particularly important for the "pipe" output plugin (and
others, such as JACK/PulseAudio), because we were heavily leaking file
descriptors to child processes.

This updates the copyright header to all be the same, which is
pretty much an update of where to mail request for a copy of the GPL
and the years of the MPD project. This also puts all committers under
'The Music Player Project' umbrella. These entries should go
individually in the AUTHORS file, for consistancy.

Use GLib's GError library for reporting output device failures.

Note that some init() methods don't clean up properly after a failure,
but that's ok for now, because the MPD core will abort anyway.

Return true/false for success/failure instead of returning 0/-1.

Renamed types, functions and variables.

The MPD core guarantees that the audio_output object is always
consistent, and our timer!=NULL checks are superfluous.

audio_output_get_name() has been removed, which was the only function
left in output_api.h.  The output plugin doesn't need the audio_output
object at all, remove the parameter from the init() method.

The meaning of the chunk depends on the audio format; don't suggest a
specific format by declaring the pointer as "char*", pass "void*"
instead.

The old API required an output plugin to not return until all data
passed to the play() method is consumed.  Some output plugins have to
loop to fulfill that requirement, and may block during that.  Simplify
these, by letting them consume only part of the buffer: make play()
return the length of the consumed data.

All config_get_block_*() functions should accept constant config_param
pointers.

This replaces lots of getBlockParam() invocations.

Renamed functions, types, variables.

Use GLib's G_GNUC_UNUSED instead of gcc.h's mpd_unused.
