The normal I/O event thread can have a large latency, e.g. when libgnutls loads all TLS CA certificates for a https connect. This makes it unreliable for the ALSA I/O notifications, and causes ring buffer xruns. To avoid interfering with high latency events such as CURL's, we move the ALSA I/O events to a separate I/O thread which also obtains real-time scheduling (if possible). Closes #221
