 PipeWire 0.3.13

 This is a bugfix release that is API and ABI compatible
 with previous 0.3.x releases.

 - PipeWire improvements
   - Add pw-reserve tool to reserve or monitor a device on DBus.
   - Install spa-resample, a tool to resample a file.
   - Install spa-acp-tool, a tool to inspect the card profile.
   - Various fixes and improvements
   - Fix a bug in pw-stream where a capture stream could run out
     of buffers and become silent.
   - Rework the processing loops in the adapter and stream. There
     is now less latency in PulseAudio and ALSA layers.

 - Session manager improvements
   - Improve the device reservation code. We now try to acquire
     the device using the dbus device reservation API before we
     probe the device. This avoids conflicts with a running
     PulseAudio where devices would disappear (because they were
     locked by the other process).
   - Don't fail on invalid input from the config files.
   - Audio devices now have the same name as what PulseAudio
     would assign.

 - Device support
   - v4l2: try to use the format before enumerating the size and
     framerate. Some drivers don't check the format and might now
     work better.
   - v4l2: Fall back to MMAP when EXPBUF fails. Fix MMAP access,
     just export the fd and the mapoffset. This should make more
     devices work.
   - Fix crash in ALSA Card Profile (ACP) code.
   - ACP: fix selection of default profile. Prefer any possibly
     available profile over 'Off'. This makes some card at least
     start with something.
   - Fix soft volume. After setting the volume to 0, it would stay
     at 0 until pushed over the max volume. This should fix
     various volume related issues.

 - PulseAudio layer improvements
   - Rework the buffering and latency measurements and tweak the
     buffer attributes. This should make browsers and media
     players work better. This should also improve speechd
     performance.

 - JACK layer improvements
   - Fix compilation against newer JACK.
