Fixes#135897 by introducing a mixing thread to coreaudio, making the callback lock free. At the same time these changes unify all devices that use a mixing thread (now that's jack, pulse, pipewire and coreaudio).

Removes the playback handle from the synchronizer API and integrates it
into the device, removing the ISynchronizer interface completely.
This has been discussed in more detail in #126047 and its main purpose is to unify the handling of synchronizer events, especially seek which needed different logic for jack vs other backends.
OpenAL now needs a silence playback handle for synchronization but all
other backends are pretty straightforward just counting the mixed
samples in the SoftwareDevice with some specializations for specific
backends that had their own synchronizers before.
Note: CoreAudio changes are untested as I don't have a Mac.

`DeviceManager.h` uses `std::string` without explicitly including
the `<string>` header. While older MSVC implicitly included this
header somewhere, the headers for 17.4+ do not leading to a build
error.
The issue was that sounds were always faded from 0 volume when they
started and depending on the currently used buffer size, the fading took
longer or shorter.
The solution stores whether the sound has ever been played back and
consequently does not fade when starting to play back.
- Changing API for time values from float to double for better precision.
- Fixing minor mistakes in the documentation.
- Fixing minor unnecessary large memory allocation.
- Fixed uninitialized result used in DynamicMusic::seek().
The comment to this function says false is returned if the handle
is invalid, while in practice non-initialized value will be returned.
- Spelling typos in comment.
- Silence -Wdelete-non-abstract-non-virtual-dtor warning.
