This change completely refactors the way components are loaded in wireplumber:
- The module_init() function must return a GObject now. This object is either
a WpPlugin or a WpSiFactory in the current modules.
- When the component loader initializes a module, it automatically registers
the WpPlugin or WpSiFactory with their respective methods. There is no need
to register the WpPlugin or WpSiFactory in the module now.
- The wp_core_load_component() API has been refactored to be asynchronows. This
allows the component loader to automatically activate WpPlugin objects, and
therefore allows the application to directly get the WpPlugin without having
to find it. This simplifies a lot of things.
- The 'ifexists' and 'nofail' component flags now work even if the respective
WpPlugin could not be activated.
- The code that loads components in main.c has also been simplified a lot,
and the option to load dangling components has also been removed.
* populate most session item properties from create-item.lua to keep
things more compact and readable
* use a standard naming scheme for the session item properties
* use session item properties instead of node properties in policy-node.lua
* improve policy-node's performance by converting the properties dictionary
less times for each session item
* refactor some policy logic and make things slighly more readable
* change the accepted values for 'context' in wp_si_linkable_get_ports();
use "input" and "output" to keep things clear, because the previous use
of NULL and "reverse" were implying that a node has only one "standard"
direction, but this is complicated for sinks w/ monitors and duplex nodes
* allow using monitors (which are Audio/Sink nodes in fact) as sources
* treat Audio/Duplex nodes as sinks, like p-m-s does
* respect the "stream.capture.sink" property of streams
Fixes#66
This adds WP_SESSION_ITEM_FEATURE_ACTIVE and WP_SESSION_ITEM_FEATURE_EXPORTED
features, so _activate and _export APIs have been removed. Modules and unit
tests have also been updated.
