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.
Pull Request: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/133191
- Changing API for time values from float to double for better precision.
- Fixing minor mistakes in the documentation.
- Fixing minor unnecessary large memory allocation.
Deleting the old internal audaspace.
Major changes from there are:
- The whole library was refactored to use C++11.
- Many stability and performance improvements.
- Major Python API refactor:
- Most requested: Play self generated sounds using numpy arrays.
- For games: Sound list, random sounds and dynamic music.
- Writing sounds to files.
- Sequencing API.
- Opening sound devices, eg. Jack.
- Ability to choose different OpenAL devices in the user settings.
