On our way to stabilize the decoder API, we will one day remove the
input stream functions. The most basic function, read() will be
provided by decoder_api.h with this patch. It already contains a loop
(still with manual polling), error/eof handling and decoder command
checks. This kind of code used to be duplicated in all decoder
plugins.
With the functions decoder_plugin_register() and
decoder_plugin_unregister(), decoder plugins can register a
"secondary" plugin, like the flac input plugin does this for
"oggflac".
The wavpack decoder plugin implements a hack, and it needs the song
URL for that. This API (and the hack) should be revised later, but
add that function for now.
Some decoder commands are implemented in the decoder plugins, thus
they need to have an API call to signal that their current command has
been finished. Let them use the new decoder_command_finished()
instead of the internal dc_command_finished().
Another big patch which hides internal mpd APIs from decoder plugins:
decoder plugins regularly poll dc->command; expose it with a
decoder_api.h function.
Since we moved all PCM conversions to decoder_data(), the attribute
convState isn't being used anymore by the OutputBuffer code. Move it
to struct decoder.
dc->audioFormat is set once by the decoder plugins before invoking
decoder_initialized(); hide dc->audioFormat and let the decoder pass
an AudioFormat pointer to decoder_initialized().
We are now beginning to remove direct structure accesses from the
decoder plugins. decoder_clear() and decoder_flush() mask two very
common buffer functions.
decoder_initialized() sets the state to DECODE_STATE_DECODE and wakes
up the player thread. It is called by the decoder plugin after its
internal initialization is finished. More arguments will be added
later to prevent direct accesses to the DecoderControl struct.
