This closes the PipeWire process properly to not leak memory and remove
the PipeWire capture node of soundbox as soon as the context passed to
StreamPipewireContext() is closed.

The current architecture uses the following processing:
- capture raw audio from PipeWire as unsigned 16 bit integers
- convert with a `ffmpeg` process to OGG / FLAC
- stream the `ffmpeg` output to multiple soundboxes via TCP
Only the first part is different for URL sources. Since using PipeWire
significant latency (up to 15 seconds) were measured.
It turned out that this happens exactly when zero bytes (silence) are
fed into the `ffmpeg` process. This commit avoids this by dropping those
empty samples.
It has to be made sure that only samples are dropped where both channels
are zero. Otherwise audible noise is the result.

This implements a PipeWire capture device which can be used as an input
source instead of the already available URL input.
Known issues with the current PipeWire support are:
- user has to connect the monitor of the default audio sink to the
capture device manually
- correct shutdown has to be tested
- multiple instances do not work
- medium code quality requires refactoring
Since this is nevertheless usable and possible unknown bugs should be
figured out in practise soon this implementation is already added.
Bugfixes and refactoring might follow.
