Thomas Weißschuh 87aba146ed ao_pipewire: Add PipeWire audio backend
The AO provides a way for mpv to directly submit audio to the PipeWire
audio server.
Doing this directly instead of going through the various compatibility
layers provided by PipeWire has the following advantages:

* It reduces complexity of going through the compatibility layers
* It allows a richer integration between mpv and PipeWire
  (for example for metadata)
* Some users report issues with the compatibility layers that to not
  occur with the native AO

For now the AO is ordered after all the other relevant AOs, so it will
most probably not be picked up by default.
This is for the following reasons:

* Currently it is not possible to detect if the PipeWire daemon that mpv
  connects to is actually driving the system audio.
  (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/issues/1835)
* It gives the AO time to stabilize before it is used by everyone.
