pipe: added music_buffer, rewrite music_pipe

Turn the music_pipe into a simple music_chunk queue.  The music_chunk
allocation code is moved to music_buffer, and is now managed with a
linked list instead of a ring buffer.  Two separate music_pipe objects
are used by the decoder for the "current" and the "next" song, which
greatly simplifies the cross-fading code.
