    raop: Add autoreconnect feature · 48545240

    This patch adds the autoreconnect feature to the raop module.
    This is mainly to be used in a server context, but can be used
    also in a desktop usage context.
    
    With autoreconnect feature, the raop module behaves like this:
    
    - At initialisation or in case of the RTSP TCP connection lost, it
      tries to reconnect every 5 seconds
    - In case of any fatal error, it tries to reconnect every 5 seconds
    - In UDP mode, if no timing packets received anymore for a long time,
      RTSP connection is closed, then it tries to reconnect..
    - After reconnection, once RTSP session has been established again,
      playing is resumed automatically.
    - When the connection is not established yet (or loss), the sink
      behaves like a null sink. In the source code I called it "autonull",
      even if autonull is set to autoreconnect param value, it could be
      split into two different params.
