2013-08-25source/av: handle multiple audio streams w/ proper sample rate
We need to tell sox to use and resample to the _player_ format instead of the source format. Otherwise 48000 Hz audio (common for video?) sounds very slow when attempting to play back on the default 44100 Hz. It is also likely preferable to choose the audio stream which matches the player channel count instead of letting sox automatically invoke the remix effect. Before this change, playing 6-channel, 48000 Hz source into a sink expecting stereo, 44100 Hz is rather disturbing... While we're at it, clarify the spawn code for the sox source, too. We can drop the test_format_from_file test now, since it's probably overkill at this point.
2013-08-25preliminary support for avconv/avprobe from libav
avconv is capable of outputting to the .sox format, greatly simplifying our life as it enables us to easily apply sox effects on a per-source file basis. dtas-sourceedit and the "source" protocol commands will need to change to support internal priorities (like sink).
