Hooks need to have a priority relative to the event they are executed on,
so it does not make much sense to have all kinds of different priorities
based also on the event type and/or the module where they are defined.
Also, it wouldn't be acceptable to have such an enumeration on the public API.
- Sharpen the hooks, so that they are called only when needed.
- Make settings live, apply them when they are changed.
- Remove the state saver after events hook, call it directly.
- Remove the settings bookkeeping as the gobject properties.
- Remove the scheduling of default-nodes-changed signal via core.
This scheme provides for an orderly execution of hooks as the priorities
are controlled from one single place. Enumeration is defined in such a
way that new items can be added easily.
All the event hooks are changed to get the priorities from this
enumeration.
- Add a new variable "name" in WpEventHook and use it to log all the
hooks(by name) picked up in _push_event(). This gives a clear picture
if hook is registered for a given event.
- Form a name for an event and a chain of events for an event run, log
both of them. This gives a clear picture of the events executed and
order in which they are dispatched.
- Similarly build hooks chain and print it in _source_dispatch(), this
gives a clear picture of the hooks picked and the order in which they
are dispatched.
- Log only the dispatchable(with hooks) events, this de-clutters
the log messages.
Previously a default source had to be Audio/Source and a default sink
had to be Audio/Sink. This did not account for:
- monitor sources (Audio/Sink)
- duplex nodes (Audio/Duplex)
- virtual sources (Audio/Source/Virtual)
With this change the restriction is now on the number of input/output
ports, so any Audio/* node with output ports is a valid target to select
as a default source, while any Audio/* node with input ports is a valid
target for a default sink.
