Nothing in the core has used it for some time. It's exported to the
plugin API but the last plugins to use it were switched to the mixer API
back in 2011.
This allows us to get rid of pcm_play_dma_pause() from all audio drivers

In short, the display fading back in after a pause resuming interferes
with the audio codec, causing BadThings(tm) that cannot be recovered from
This really is just avoiding a known trigger; there's no guarantee this
condition won't occur under random circumstances during normal use,
and there's no good way to work around this from within rockbox.
I suspect the underlying problem is that both the display control and
codec control share an i2c bus, but the kernel drivers implementing them
isn't using proper linux bus access/locking.

* Track mute state, only call hw if actual change is needed
* Don't unmute in audiohw_postinit()
* sample rate tracking fixes
* erosq: Don't start up muted

* If AUDIOHW_MUTE_ON_PAUSE, no meaningful change
* Unconditionally unmute on playback start
* xduoox3ii: Mute on sample rate change
* rocker/xduoo: Stay muted after startup
This avoids the nasty "pop" on startup, without doing
the full mute-on-pause stuff that causes unacceptable
dropouts on the X3ii.

* xduoo x3ii/x20: Better line out support
* less granular volume settings (too many steps before)
* Better handling of swiching sample rates
* Log actual sample rate in debug menu
