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.
This patch introduces the mixer for the pulse output.
Technically speaking, the pulse index is needed to get or set
the volume. You must define callback fonctions to get this index since
the pulse output in mpd is done using the simpe api. The pulse simple api
does not provide the index of the newly defined output.
So callback fonctions are associated to the pulse context.
The list of all the sink input is then retreived.
Then we select the name of the mpd pulse output and control
its volume by its associated index number.

[mk: fixed whitespace errors and broke long lines; removed
daemonization changes from main.c]
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.
The MPD core guarantees that the audio_output object is always
consistent, and our pa_simple!=NULL checks are superfluous. Also
don't manually close the device on error in pulse_play(), since the
MPD core does this automatically when the play() method returns 0.
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 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.
