A mono input with surround output is upmixed by swresampler by routing
it to FC (front center) by default which corresponds to third channel
for 3.0, 4.0, 4.1, 5.0, 5.1, 7.1. (The other channels are muted.)
But the volume meters are set to show the first channel for mono sources.
Therefore although audio is processed, it would not show on the meter.
This fixes this display issue.

fdk-aac v2.0.0 (aacenc 4.0.0) changes the AACENC_InfoStruct:
the encoderDelay parameter is replaced by two, nDelay and
nDelayCore. This patch checks the lib version and adjust the parameter
accordingly.
Track 1 offset is reset but not the offset for other tracks.
This caused sync issues in between tracks (with track 1 and others).
(bug found by EposVox)
Decklink cards accept 2, 8 or 16 audio channels.
If obs audio output is setup to n channels ( 8 >= n > 2), and the
decklink card captures n channels, one needs to squash the silent
channels (n+1, .., 8) or sampling issues occur.
This had been done on windows but is required also on macOs and linux.
The commit adds the fix for macOS and linux.
Some code factoring has also been done.

The default channel layouts from aac spec are implemented in FFmpeg
native aac encoder as follows:
AV_CH_LAYOUT_MONO,
AV_CH_LAYOUT_STEREO,
AV_CH_LAYOUT_SURROUND,
AV_CH_LAYOUT_4POINT0,
AV_CH_LAYOUT_5POINT0_BACK,
AV_CH_LAYOUT_5POINT1_BACK,
AV_CH_LAYOUT_7POINT1,
The correspondence of speaker layouts to AV_CH_LAYOUT from FFmpeg is
changed to reflect the previous table.
Although FFmpeg native aac encoder can now encode all the layouts listed
in avutil channel_layout.h (on master), there might be issues with older
FFmpeg binaries.
Note that 2.1 speaker layout will be encoded as AV_CH_LAYOUT_SURROUND
(FL FR FC) because it is not listed as the default layout for three
channels.
This just means some optimizations for LFE channel will not be used by
the encoder which will treat it as an SCE (single channel element).
Closesjp9000/obs-studio#1182
Some audio devices do not have a fixed number of channels. For example,
Soundflower. This was previously fixed by defaulting the speaker layout
to stereo. With surround sound support, the default has been changed to
the output speaker layout as set in Settings > Audio.
Closesjp9000/obs-studio#1110
The list of channel layouts available for decklink input is missing 2.1
& 4.1 layouts. The commit adds them. This aligns the decklink input
with the speaker layouts available at outputs. Having different layouts
as input and output invokes FFmpeg resampler, which remixes the channels
in non trivial way except when downmixing to stereo. This patch allows
to avoid such uncontrolled remix of channels with decklink input.
The core audio aac encoder has bitrates maps specific to speaker
layouts. Previously, the bitrate map maxed at 320 kbs and was the map
for stereo. The bitrate map is now tailored to the speaker layout. In
practice this unlocks higher bitrates. For instance up to 960 kbs for
7.1. Additionally the commit fixes a bug with 2.1 with channels not
ordered correctly.

Default channel layout for 4 channels is 4.0 in FFmpeg.
Replacing quad with 4.0 will improve compatibility since FFmpeg has
better support of its default channel layouts.
(also modifies obs-ffmpeg, audio-monitoring, win-wasapi, decklink,
obs-outputs)
Removes speaker layouts which are not exposed in UI. The speaker
layouts selectable by users in the UI are the most common ones. It is
not necessary to keep other layouts. (This basically removes
5POINT1_SURROUND, 7POINT1_SURROUND, SURROUND =3.0).
Fixes ticket 1070.

(related bugs).
The ffmpeg constant AVFMT_RAWPICTURE was deprecated in october 2015
and marked for removal at avformat major bump to version 58
(ffmpeg commit 34ed5c2 , oct 12, 2015).
The bump occured with commit 69b5ce6 (oct21, 2017).
The constant was subsequently removed (commit 693a11b, oct 26 2017).
It was removed from obs-studio with commit d670d7b (from me).
But the code block which was executed with this constant was not
removed, causing issues with ffmpeg output.
The commit fixes the issue for old ffmpeg builds as well as new ones.
The constant is reintegrated for avformat major version < 58 and removed
for version >= 58 (along with its accompanying code).
Thanks to J Lowe for help in solving the bug.
(tested on win 10, macos 10.13, ubuntu 17.10 with ffmpeg head & ffmpeg
3.4.1)
Fixes an issue where media-playback would not compile with older FFmpeg
versions due to the fact that the AV_PIX_FMT_VIDEOTOOLBOX was
unavailable until version 54.31.100 of libavutil (FFmpeg 2.8).
Fixes mantis issue 1045.

Adds surround sound audio support to the core, core plugins, and user

Tested streaming servers: wowza, nginx
HLS, mpeg-dash : surround passthrough
Html5 players tested with live surround:
videojs, mediaelement, viblast (hls+dash), hls.js
Decklink: on win32, swap channels order for 5.1 7.1
(due to different channel mapping on wav, mpeg, ffmpeg)
Audio filters: surround working.
Monitoring: surround working (win macOs linux (pulse-audio)).
VST: stereo plugins keep in general only the first two channels.
surround plugins should work (e.g. mcfx does).
OS: win, macOs, linux (alsa, pulse-audio).
Misc: larger audio bitrates unlocked to accommodate more channels
NB: mf-aac only supports mono and stereo + 5.1 on win 10
(not implemented due to lack of usefulness)

More fixes due to ffmpeg renaming some constants and deprecating
AVFMT_RAWPICTURE and AV_PIX_FMT_VDA_VLD.
Latter replaced by AV_PIX_FMT_VIDEOTOOLBOX per ffmpeg dev advice.
