Several new modules, however some will no longer work after changes to the
core code; a best effort has been made to investigate and mark such broken
modules.
Musicpd has been rewritten in c++, and now unfortunately requires a
modern gcc to build.
While here, remove duplicate LICENSE line pointed out by danfe...
* new analysis code and tuning that significantly improves encoding
quality, especially for variable-bitrate (VBR),
* automatic detection of speech or music to decide which encoding
mode to use,
* surround with good quality at 128 kbps for 5.1 and usable down
to 48 kbps,
* and speed improvements on all architectures.
Chase shared library bump.

0.18 update will come soon, but it's proving nontrivial
due to a substantial rewrite in c++!

Setuptools is the preferred method to manage Python distributions after
many changes to the packaging ecosystem over the past couple of years.
Only ports using USE_PYDISTUTILS= yes are affected by this commit, ports using
USE_PYDISTUTILS= easy_install remains the same however this usage is now
deprecated and should be converted to USE_PYDISTUTILS= yes.
Some Python distributions do not work with setuptools out of the box because
they extend the install command from distutils and not setuptools, and
so they need to be patched accordingly.
pip (which leverages setuptools) works around the issue by using eggs, however
we want to get rid of those as well, as support for "flat" installation is
unavailable or has other issues associated with it.
This work allows us to unify how python packages are built, ensure that Python
distributions are installed consistently, reduces complexity for Python port
maintainers and paves the way for simplifying the Python ports framework in
the future.

- Restore behavior from r296140 while adding alignment options in case
of issues. This should make things slightly less broken and add more
sample formats. [1]
- Some apps (e.g. linux-firefox with ports/169896) don't check with ALSA
which sample formats are supported and just feed whatever they like,
assuming the underlying device supports it.
While here also fix mixer device for OSS plugin. It should be /dev/dsp
according to 4Front OSS wiki. The only works with ARIFF_OSS enabled
but the volume is reset on close(). audio/oss doesn't work either way:
the new (OSSv4) way to control mixer is via SNDCTL_MIX_* ioctls. [2]
