I installed the WaveInput plugin and then modified the
custom-convert.conf to simply use this command line:
[cat] $FILE$

So now I open this URL in LMS:
wavin:/tmp/airpipe

It played the AirPlay stream from my phone and I can create a sync group
to a few rooms and it stays in sync. The only problem is if I press
pause on my phone the audio stops within about 2 secs but then when I
unpause it takes LMS about 30 secs to start playing.

At least I am getting somewhere. I think an experienced plugin dev could
make a really good plugin with shairport-sync. Shairport-sync can also
output metadata to a pipe. So a plugin should be able to read this pipe
to get the track info, album art and track position.
