(Note: This commit also modifies UI)
Instead of using signals, use designated callback lists for audio
capture and audio control helpers. Signals aren't suitable here due to
the fact that signals aren't meant for things that happen every frame or
things that happen every time audio/video is received. Also prevents
audio from being allocated every time these functions are called due to
the calldata structure.
Add a property to the volume meter that specifies the length of the
interval in which the audio data should be sampled before the
audio_levels signal is emitted.
This adds a volume meter object to libobs that can be used by the GUI
or plugins to convert the raw audio level data from sources to values
that can easily be used to display the audio data.
The volume meter object will use the same mapping functions as the
fader object to map dB levels to a scale.
This adds a new library of audio control functions mainly for the use in
GUIS. For now it includes an implementation of a software fader that can
be attached to sources in order to easily control the volume.
The fader can translate between fader-position, volume in dB and
multiplier with a configurable mapping function.
Currently only a cubic mapping (mul = fader_pos ^ 3) is included, but
different mappings can easily be added.
Due to libobs saving/restoring the source volume from the multiplier,
the volume levels for existing source will stay the same, and live
changing of the mapping will work without changing the source volume.
