For simplicity, the MPD core should not have to deal with packing. It
is rarely used, and those plugins that need it should use the
pcm_export library instead.
Eliminate support for reverse endian samples from the MPD core. This
moves a lot of complexity to the plugins that really need it (only
ALSA and CDIO currently).
Currently, byteswapping is performed on the format_buffer. This can
go wrong when this buffer is used twice during one run. Add a
separate buffer for swapping the byte order.
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.
There is nothing 24 bit specific in the pcm_dither_24 struct. Since
we want to reuse the struct for 32 bit dithering, let's drop the "_24"
suffix from the struct name.
