This patch adds muting to ASMixer, which works by substituting what we
would normally send to the sound card with zero-filled memory instead.
We do it this way to ensure that the queued sample buffers keep getting
played (silently.)
This is obviously not the perfect way of doing this, and in the future
we should improve on this, and also find a way to utilize any hardware
mixing functions in the sound card.
Okay, I've spent a whole day on this now, and it finally kinda works!
With this patch, CObject and all of its derived classes are reference
counted instead of tree-owned.
The previous, Qt-like model was nice and familiar, but ultimately also
outdated and difficult to reason about.
CObject-derived types should now be stored in RefPtr/NonnullRefPtr and
each class can be constructed using the forwarding construct() helper:
auto widget = GWidget::construct(parent_widget);
Note that construct() simply forwards all arguments to an existing
constructor. It is inserted into each class by the C_OBJECT macro,
see CObject.h to understand how that works.
CObject::delete_later() disappears in this patch, as there is no longer
a single logical owner of a CObject.
Give the mixer a main volume value (percent) that we scale all the
outgoing samples by (before clipping.)
Also add a simple "avol" program for querying and setting the volume:
- "avol" prints the current volume.
- "avol 200" sets the main mix volume to 200%
