From 754f26a97c816781e80500d98f2515ae97836145 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>
Date: Wed, 14 Sep 2011 21:46:41 +0200
Subject: input_stream: non-blocking I/O

Add GMutex, GCond attributes which will be used by callers to
conditionally wait on the stream.

Remove the (now-useless) plugin method buffer(), wait on GCond
instead.  Lock the input_stream before each method call.  Do the same
with the playlist plugins.
