This function is not critical for performance, and the inline
expansion looks too expensive.

For better optimization.

Compile the plugins only once with the same C flags.

Prepare for enabling "silent-rules".

Don't use MPC_CFLAGS, MPD_LIBS.

Don't use MPD_LIBS, MPC_CFLAGS.

Don't use MPD_LIBS.

In a C file, that is too late, because _mingw.h defaults to 0x0502,
and ours would be illegal redefintion.

Use DESPOTIFY_LIBS in Makefile.am instead.  Also, use
DESPOTIFY_CFLAGS.

gprof is obsolete, it's better to use perfcounters in every aspect.

AC_SEARCH_LIBS allows the function to be present in libc.

One call to AC_SEARCH_LIBS replaces AC_CHECK_FUNCS and AC_CHECK_LIB.

Use local variable "is_float".

Cast to enum sample_format.  Without the cast, it's just a plain
integer, and gcc cannot know that a "case" statement is missing.

The protocol mandates that playlist URIs are absolute (i.e. full URI
relative to the music directory, not relative to the parent
directory).  This adds the parameter "directory" to the "playlist"
visitor method.

.. instead of failing playback completely.

Allow gcc to warn when a new format isn't supported.

Let the libsamplerate code initialize itself.

Load the samplerate_converter on MPD startup.  Fail if the converter
name is invalid.

Defaults to "no", which fixes the noise problems.

Defaulting to "with systemd" causes problems for users who install MPD
as an unprivileged user, and it breaks "make distcheck".  It looks
like enabling it by default creates too many practical problems for
unexperienced users.

With --with-systemdsystemunitdir (without a parameter), configure.ac
attempts to auto-detect systemd.

When we have an absolute path that's not inside the music directory,
allow loading it anyway, if we're in "secure" mode (i.e. the client is
connected via UNIX socket).

Right now, a playlist with absolute pathnames can only add songs that
are in the same the directory of the playlist or under it.

If uri is an absolute pathname and base_uri is set,
playlist_check_translate_song() will check that base_uri is a prefix
of uri, excluding every other song in the music directory outside
base_uri.

I think in this case base_uri should be completely ignored (and made
NULL) and uri should just be checked against music root directory.
