Apart from being less code, this actually gives us a tiny performance
improvement. Up until a few years ago, if you pass `NULL` as the
marshaller for a signal, GLib would fall back to
`g_cclosure_marshal_generic` which uses libffi to pack/unpack its
arguments. One could avoid this by specifying a more specific
marshaller which would then be used to immediately pack and unpack into
GValues with the correct type.
Lately however, as a way of optimizing signal emission (which can be
quite expensive), GLib added a possibility to set a `va_marshaller`,
which skips the unnecessary GValue packing and unpacking and just uses a
valist variant.
Since the performance difference is big enough, if the marshaller
argument is NULL, `g_signal_new()` will now check for the simple
marshallers (return type NONE and a single argument) and set both the
generic and the valist marshaller. In other words, less code for us with
behind-the-scenes optimizations.
In case you also want va_marshallers for more complex signals, you can
use `g_signal_set_va_marshaller()`.

GvcMixerCards are not removed when reconnecting to PA server, which
causes duplicate card entries to appear on PA restart. Moreover, the
old GvcMixerCard instances have pointers to the old already freed
pa_context, resulting to use-after-free on operations. Duplicate
entries are also caused by sink/source removal on reconnect not sending
right signals.
Make it clean up all Gvc objects as if we got subscribe remove events
for them all:
Use remove_sink/remove_source to remove sinks/sources so that the right
signals are emitted. Remove cards using remove_card, so that also they
get cleaned up. Remove also any leftover GvcMixerUIDevices.
Move cleanup of streams etc. before pa_context unref, so that we free
the objects referring the pa_context before freeing the context.
This fixes gnome-control-center crashing when PA server is restarted,
and one e.g. tries to do something that ends up in
gvc_mixer_card_change_profile such as selecting output device with port
in different profile. It also fixes duplicate entries appearing in the
device lists on Pipewire restart (they don't appear with Pulseaudio
since PA device IDs don't change on restart).
It should also fix similar crashes in gnome-shell.
In update_card, profile_list is incorrectly used also after its
ownership is transferred to the GvcMixerCard. In practice, this causes
e.g. some profiles to go missing due to the list head being clobbered.
Fix this by calling gvc_mixer_card_set_profiles only after profiles_list
is no longer used for any other purpose.
Some devices don't have a card to match against, (e.g. network sinks),
which would make 'match_stream_with_devices()' get confused and log
warnings about missing card devices when trying to match streams with
devices.
Avoid this by marking a stream as 'in-possession' if there was already a
device with the stream ID set to it.
This fixes warning like
(gnome-shell:3521215): Gvc-CRITICAL **: 10:57:07.155: gvc_mixer_card_get_index: assertion 'GVC_IS_MIXER_CARD (card)' failed
It is a bad idea to use the variable port name to check the port
type. Use only the new port type and availability group string
for the decision.
Also, select the ports by priority, if there multiple ports
with the similar type.
Recently Intel added a new audio driver in the Linux kernel, it is
called sof driver. This driver is needed on the laptops which
connects the digital mic to the PCH instead of the codec. To make the
sof driver work with pulseaudio, the ucm is mandatory.
With the ucm, the multi-function audio jack has different port names
in the pulseaudio from the one without ucm, these are the port names
with the ucm:
[In] Mic1: Digital Microphone
[In] Mic2: Headphones Stereo Microphone
[In] Headset: Headset Mono Microphone
[Out] Headphones: Headphones
[Out] Speaker: Speaker
To make the audio device selection work on the machines using the ucm,
the pulseaudio introduces a change to add 2 new members in the device
port structure from the PA_PROTOCOL_VERSION=34, with these 2 members'
help, we could consolidate the port finding and setting for both with
ucm and without ucm.
And this patch maintains the backward compatibility with the
PA_PROTOCOL_VERSION < 34.

All consumers of the submodule switched to meson, except the CI build.
It neither seems useful to maintain a second build system just for that
purpose, nor to test a configuation that isn't used by anybody.
So set up a small fake project that includes gvc as a subproject, and
build that during CI.

The `config.h` can be generated without any template.
This patch removes the template file and modifies the build file
to not make any use of it.
It also removes the variable which holds the generated configuration
file target, as it will not be necessary for any packages building
libgnome-volume-control.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=792948
The variable which holds the current directory is not necessary
because this is already included when building the library.
However, it might be interessant for any package using the library
to include the directory where headers are present, so the
current directory is appended to the library dependency without
the include directory variable.

meson has support for `assert` function, which halts meson's
execution showing a given message when a given condition is false.
This patch takes advantage of this function to slightly improve
meson's build file readibility.
It also removes a duplicated check for `pkglibdir` being set when
introspection is also set, because this check is already done when
a shared library is being created, that is a precondition for
introspection generation.

Headers are not necessary to be passed to the library compilation
function because the compiler will find them. On the other hand
they are necessary for the proper GIR generation.
This patch splits headers and sources, uses only sources for the
library building and uses both for GIR generation. It also allows
getting both separately.

A set of different variables are used to hold dependencies. However,
no individual use of them is done.
This patch removes these variables and holds their objects directly
in the array of dependencies.

Following the meson porting guidelines, this patch renames the build
options. The list of changes is as follows:
- Remove the with prefix from string options.
- The character separator from multi-word options has been changed
to underscore.
It also changes the introspection and static meson variables to be
consistent with the one used for alsa.

ALSA support is not mandatory for libgnome-volume-control, but it
can not be made optional.
This patch makes the ALSA support optional by using an option.

The defines are only relevant for compiling libgvc itself, not for
any consumers of the library. In fact, setting G_LOG_DOMAIN is
likely to conflict with the log domain defined by the including
project ...
When on A2DP profile and a Bluetooth input is selected, we first need to
switch the profile to HFP/HSP, then select the default source to be that
profile. In some cases the latter step was forgotten, because
the variable "profile_swapping_device_id" was reset before it was
supposed to be used.

In both cases objects are inserted in hash table by adding an
extra ref, but the existing reference was never removed. Don't
add a reference instead, so we don't end up with a spare one.

In a28e23d900, we said:
The callbacks will be called repeatedly, once with data, and later
on with eol == 0. Make sure to only free it when we get the eol call
instead of once we've applied the settings.
Whereas the docs say:
When requesting all of these [instances] at once, the callback will be
called multiple times, once for each object. When the list has been
exhausted, the callback will be called without an information structure
and the eol parameter set to a positive value.
If an error occurs, the callback will be invoked without an information
structure and eol set to a negative value.
So, in all, we need to free our callback data when eol is positive, or
negative. So, when it's not 0.
Seems we got lucky in the original commit because the test machine only
had a single soundcard.
