Audio indicator protocol

Browsers have the ability to show an icon in tab to indicate that the tab is playing sound. Wayland should expose a protocol to allow an application to indicate that a window is playing sound.

Structurally, the protocol could be as simple as the idle inhibit protocol but with xdg_toplevel instead of wl_surface.
