At the moment mpd doesn't store or restore the current track to/from
its state file when the daemon is stopped/started while in 'stopped'
state. I believe the preferred behaviour would be to store and
restore the current track even when the daemon is in stopped state
when shutting down.
I made a small patch to adapt this behaviour. If you believe this is
not the preferred behaviour, maybe this should be realized as a
configuration option. I'm not sure how to do this, but made a small
comment, where one would have to put the option.
Instead of returning an artificial three-state integer, return a
"success" value and put the boolean value into a "bool" pointer.
That's a little bit more overhead, but an API which looks more
natural.
When decoding a local file, the decoder thread tries to run all
matching decoders, until one succeeds. Both file_decode() and
stream_decode() can decode a stream, but MPD closes the stream before
calling file_decode(). Problem is: when this decoder fails, and the
next's stream_decode() method is invoked, the input_stream is still
closed. This patch reopens it.
Several users had problems with binding MPD to "localhost". The cause
was duplicate /etc/hosts entries: the resolver library returns
127.0.0.1 twice, and of course, MPD attempts to bind to "both" of
them. This patch makes failures non-fatal, given that at least one
address was bound successfully. This is a workaround; users should
rather fix their /etc/hosts file.
When client_defer_output() aborts the connection to the client,
client_write_output() called client_write_deferred() anyway. This
caused an assertion failure. Fix it by checking for the "expired"
flag again after client_defer_output() returns.
When the decoder is finished, break out of the player loop only after
another player.pipe check. We did check the pipe size a few lines
above, but that check was kind of racy.
When a music_chunk only contains a tag but no PCM data, play_chunk()
returns true without freeing the chunk. The caller now assumes that
the chunk is moved into some music_pipe and does not bother to free it
either.
To check for leaked music_chunk objects, free the music buffer on
CLOSE_AUDIO. This invokes an assertion check which ensures that all
chunks have been returned to the buffer.
Instead of returning the local variable "ret" which is always true at
this point, hard-code the "true" return value, because that might be
more readable.
If a file is removed the library, next time mpd will try to play it it
will result in an error 'ERROR: problems decoding some/file.ogg'.

Commit f78cddb4 introduced a regression: when the playlist reached its
end, MPD did not reset the "current song" pointer anymore after stop.
Add a "current = -1" code line.
