audioOutput_alsa: better period_size auto-configuration
We'll try setting an initial value of 50ms, and halve it each time snd_pcm_hw_params fails with -EPIPE. This way we'll can use a larger (50ms) period_size whenever a device supports it, and automatically pick smaller ones if we can't set larger ones. This removes the calculation borrowed from libao (svn) as well. Other minor things: "Alsa" => "ALSA" in error messages _US appended to *_TIME constants so we won't get confused (shank's request) git-svn-id: https://svn.musicpd.org/mpd/trunk@4438 09075e82-0dd4-0310-85a5-a0d7c8717e4f
