FS#2793 - DUMB plugin: libdumb 0.9.3 + dumb player&disk writer + misc

This patch contains the following features:

* Upgrade of apps/codecs/dumb to version 0.9.3

* Small patch to plugin.c/plugin.h which makes
pcm_play_data() work on the win32 simulator

* Patch to apps/plugins/Makefile which changes the way
.rock files are built in cygwin for the win32 simulator

  • Instead of using dlltool/dllwrap, use “gcc -shared”
  • Makes debug symbols and source visible for gdb

* A new plugin, apps/plugins/dumb.c and
apps/plugins/dumbsupp.h, which contains:

  • Implementation of necessary C library methods as

required by libdumb:

  • math.h compatible implementation of pow(),

exp(), log() and floor(), based on libmsun from FreeBSD
4.11

  • silly alloc()/realloc implementation
  • Playback loop, which plays actual audio on the

win32 simulator

  • Very simple disk writer, which renders audio to a

.raw file on disk on both win32 and target

Note: Only tested on win32 cygwin and iRiver H340.
Known problems:

  • Audio output does not work H300; someone (LinusN)

on IRC mentioned that the pcm_play_data() API is
currently out of order

  • Decoding is very slow on H300 due to excessive use

of floating point maths (doubles, even)

  • Decoding eventually runs out of memory, because

main decoding loop appears to call malloc(), and the
included implementation of free() does not free memory

  • Makefile dependencies probably not correct; libdumb

depends on the dumbsupp.h file

The patch is against CVS HEAD as of right now (2005-12-01)
