Allow some variables in encoding formats
----------------------------------------

                 Key: LS-634
                 URL: http://dev.sourcefabric.org/browse/LS-634
             Project: Liquidsoap
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Liquidsoap
            Reporter: Samuel Mimram


We should allow some simple variables in encoding formats, otherwise some users 
(airtime) are starting to get an exponential blowup in the size of their 
scripts... I think that an easy solution would be to replace the variables by 
their value at preprocessing time (we don't want to have a value environment 
when doing type inference, so it has to be resolved before that).

For instance, Martin Konečný reported this on the ML:

The reason I brought this up, is because currently our code is as follows:

        output_mono = (...)
        output_stereo = (...)
        if type == "mp3" then
            if bitrate == 24 then 
                if stereo then
                    ignore(output_stereo(%mp3(bitrate = 24, stereo = true), 
!source))
                else
                    ignore(output_mono(%mp3(bitrate = 24, stereo = false), 
mean(!source)))
                end
            elsif bitrate == 32 then
                if stereo then
                    ignore(output_stereo(%mp3(bitrate = 32, stereo = true), 
!source))
                else
                    ignore(output_mono(%mp3(bitrate = 32, stereo = false), 
mean(!source)))
                end
            elsif bitrate == 48 then
                if stereo then
                    ignore(output_stereo(%mp3(bitrate = 48, stereo = true), 
!source))
                else
                    ignore(output_mono(%mp3(bitrate = 48, stereo = false), 
mean(!source)))
                end

Multiply for all bitrates up to 320kbps, then once again for %vorbis, and then 
once again for shoutcast :)

Right now it's not so bad, but in the future if we add one more user 
customizable variable, it would be wiser to use a code generator :)
