For certain format (hi-res files) and normal buffer size hardware, The
hardware may at once consume most of the buffers. However, in Delay()
function, MPD is supposed to wait for 25 ms after the next try. it
will create a hiccup. The negative impact is much major than
increasing the latency.
I understand larger buffers come at a price. That's why in my earlier
commit last year I significantly reduced it. However, the buffer size
in CoreAudio is set according to the hardware, which is super small
latency. For instance, the system audio of 2015 generation of macbook
pro has maximum buffer size of 4096 samples, which is just 0.09s for
44.1k framerate, or 0.04s for 96k frames --- . compare to the 0.5 sec
latency alsa plugin has, even if we quadruple it, it's still super
tiny.
If libupnp is installed in a non-standard location we must rely on the
include path provided by $(pkg-config --cflags libupnp). Relative to the
path given from that command no prefix must be used to find the respective
files.
This fixes spurious replay gain logs when the player inserts silence
chunks, because those silence chunks had no replay gain attached,
resetting the ReplayGainFilter state, flipping it forth and back.
When starting playback with a specific song which does not have the
highest priority, the previous highest priority song was skipped
completely because its order was "swapped". This commit changes to a
more expensive operation which inserts the selected song into the
order list.
This fixes a small part of #165
libupnp 1.6.24 added a few badly designed macros which break the MPD
build:

To work around this, we disable our emulation functions (from
714011c81e) on this libupnp version.
Closes#163
Fixes a deadlock caused by commit
31ab78ae8e. That commit was not
actually bad - just these two calls have always been bad, which went
unnoticed for a long time.
After UnlockActivate() returns, we not only need to check for errors,
but also for more room in the ring buffer. If we don't check the ring
buffer, it may be drained already, and the cond.wait() call will never
finish.
Closes#151
