A C++20 pipewire-api wrapper

📃 Description

rohrkabel is a wrapper around the pipewire-api that embraces RAII and tries to simplify working with pipewire.

Note

As of writing only a portion of the pipewire-api has been wrapped.
In case we're missing something you need feel free to open an issue.
More portions of the api might be covered in the future depending on personal demand as well as demand from Soundux.

🧵 Thread-Safety

The pw_main_loop is not thread-safe, but supplies a special loop implementation meant for threaded-usage. However said special loop is cumbersome to deal with, especially from a RAII perspective, thus rohrkabel uses a different, channel-based approach inspired by pipewire-rs.
