Close #6813

an option to switch the modes is in the works

This is _very_ incomplete and buggy:
 - no time synchronization,
 - no sample format, sample rate and channels mask negotiation,
 - no channels reordering,
 - no S/PDIF and HDMI pass-through,
 - no volume control,
 - no device selection,
 - no fail-over to another device when needed,
 - leaking COM thread data at exit (missing dedicated thread),
 - incomplete build system integration.

But it compiles (with mingw-w64) and outputs working audio.

This fixes console logs on Wine for me.

This avoids leaking the Unix socket to child processes.

This is just a partial fix.
Fixes #6148

The scope of cookies without a domain is limited to the current server.
The current logic is always wrong because either it's the same server
and the new cookie should supersede the old one, or it's a different
server and the old cookie should not be sent. This logic is still far
from RFC-compliant, but at least it should get it right some of the time.

This plugin is unmaintained, unused and quite buggy.

Outdated and probably broken since version 1.1.0.

This plugin can cause VLC to crash or exit prematurely. Sicne it is
mostly useless and mostly superseded by the coloured variant,
lets disable it unless explicitly selected.

This should fix LP#971106.

(And remove an useless constant function pointer.)

The function pointer (in vlc_gc_*) was useless here.

(This saves one function pointer.)

Use /org/mpris/MediaPlayer2/TrackList/Append instead of / as the
AfterTrack argument to org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.AddTrack for appending

The single instance mode currently tries to contact another VLC instance
through dbus in order to find out if one is running. With dbus activation,
it results to the dbus daemon launching a new VLC instance while the
first one blocks until the new one answers the call

This patch uses org.freedesktop.DBus.NameHasOwner instead in order to get
an answer from the dbus daemon without it launching a second instance.

 * use a thread instead of short interval polling,
 * do not assume latency is shorter than a period,
 * negotiate sample format instead automatically,
 * map all known ALSA formats to VLC codecs,
 * negotiate channels and sample rate,
 * partial support for 3-6 channels (missing preferences),
 * negotiate buffer and period times according to caching,
 * tolerate off-by-one period size due to rounding,
 * use the "default" device by default rather than "hw",
 * remove old-style hardware-only suggestions in debug messages.

This should fix support for or work around bugs in, some drivers:
 * explicitly disable soft-resampler,
 * define access mode before sample format,
 * set buffer before period,
 * use period time rather than period count.

modules/stream_filter/dash/http/HTTPConnection.cpp was case-sensitive
when checking Content-Length.  RFC 2616 section 4.2 states "Field names
are case-insensitive"

The http server built in to the JDK 1.6 uses a field name of
"Content-length" which reveals an incompatibility of VLC's DASH module.

If the decoder returns a new size via the crop rect, but hasn't
explicitly indicated a plane height (via the nSliceHeight parameter),
keep the frame height as plane height instead.

Also do the same check for stride vs width. The decoders that had
problems that the nSliceHeight fixes do set nStride properly, so
that part won't be needed there, but might be needed on some
platform.
