HAVE_SW_VOLUME_CONTROL is required and at this time only affects the
SDL targets using pcm-sdl.c.
Enables balance control in SDL targets, unless mono volume is in use.
Compiles software volume control as unbuffered when
PCM_SW_VOLUME_UNBUFFERED is defined. This avoids the overhead and
extra latency introduced by the double buffer when it is not needed.
Use this config when the target's PCM driver is buffered and sufficient
latency exists to perform safely the volume scaling.
Simulated targets that are double-buffered when made as native targets
remain so in the sim in order to run the same code.

pcm_set_master_volume had two implementations, one for a prescaler
and one without one but the differences can be made minimal enough
to combine them.

Implements double-buffered volume, balance and prescaling control in
the main PCM driver when HAVE_SW_VOLUME_CONTROL is defined ensuring
that all PCM is volume controlled and level changes are low in latency.
Supports -73 to +6 dB using a 15-bit factor so that no large-integer
math is needed.
Low-level hardware drivers do not have to implement it themselves but
parameters can be changed (currently defined in pcm-internal.h) to work
best with a particular SoC or to provide different volume ranges.
Volume and prescale calls should be made in the codec driver. It should
appear as a normal hardware interface. PCM volume calls expect .1 dB
units.
