`AVCodecParameters` contains values from the codec detected by
avformat_find_stream_info(), but after avcodec_open2(), a different
codec might be selected with a different `AVSampleFormat`. This leads
to misinterpretation of data returned from FFmpeg, leading to random
noise or silence.
This was observed with FFmpeg 4.0.2 and a TS container file containing
MP2. A mp3-float codec was detected returning `AV_SAMPLE_FMT_FLTP`,
but finally the `mpegaudiodec_fixed.c` was used, returning
`AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S16`.
By using the audio format from `AVCodecContext`, we ensure that MPD
and FFmpeg always agree on the actual audio format in the buffer.
This removes the FFmpeg bug workaround from commit e1b032cbad which I
assume is obsolete after 7 years.
Fixes#380
ensure that valid mixer values are set also when the ALSA driver
does not report a valid dB range ('set_raw' fallback)
correct a bug in which volume is assumed to lie in [0..100]
instead of [0..1]
The protocol documentation says that the difference between `find` and
`search` is that `search` is case insensitive, but that's only half
the truth: `search` also searches for sub strings instead of matching
the whole string. This part is undocumented and unfortunate, but at
this point, we can't change it.
However leaking this surprising behavior to the new filter expressions
was a bad idea; the "==" operator should never match substrings. For
people who need that, we should add a new operator.
Meson 0.47.1 suffers from a bug which breaks linking the MPD
executable because the `-lpthread` flag is not propagated from our
`thread.a`.

Thanks to C++14, we can declare and fill variables inside `constexpr`
functions. This means me can stop make assumptions on the `struct`
layouts without losing `constexpr`.
Closes#393
Bugs in libroar which broke the MPD build have been annoying me for
quite some time, and the newest bug has now hit my main build machine:
https://github.com/MusicPlayerDaemon/MPD/issues/377
Problem is the usage of the typedef `_IO_off64_t` in libroar's
`vio_stdio.h`:
int roar_vio_to_stdio_lseek (void *__cookie, _IO_off64_t *__pos, int __w);
This `_IO_off64_t` is an internal implementation detail of glibc and
was removed in version 2.28. Nobody must ever use it. Why the ****
did the RoarAudio developers use it? Not using internal typedefs
isn't exactly rocket science.
This annoys me enough to finally remove the plugin. Anyway, I've
never heard of anybody using RoarAudio, so my best guess is that
nobody will notice.
