Add gitlab ci build description.

See merge request !3

Enable a basic build test under gitlab's continuous integration
system so we get some feedback on the state state of each commit
now that we're hosting the upstream repository there.

Fixes #3

Adds some missing checks spotted by eye in a visual review while looking

Since we have platform-dependent output modules, try building
on both linux and mac.

This is similar to the automation we added to libogg, it needs to be
invoked manually after the package version is changed in configure.ac
when the documentation boilerplate needs to be updated for a release.

Revert "Insure that the alsa plugin links against libao, since the plugin calls ao_is_big_endian from libao."

This reverts commit d11c3f1a.

This change was the wrong way to 'fix' the problem reported in trac #1779.
In normal use the plugin should already have access to the symbols from
the library that loaded it, so creating a circular dependency between
them isn't helpful.

If some other user is dynamically loading the core libao itself as a
plugin to their application, then they need to use RTLD_GLOBAL to ensure
its symbols are made available to its plugins (in the same way that libao
needs to do this when dynamically loading alsa for alsa's own plugins).

It's been out of date since 2004 and v0.8.5, so it's not really helping
anyone to still have it in this repo.

See https://packages.qa.debian.org/liba/libao.html for a link to where
the repository containing the debian packaging is found.

The autoreconf tool does the same tool detection the older
shell script does, and is now sufficiently widely deployed
to depend on. The new script is what is currently used in
other Xiph.Org projects.

Note this is a change to the new pattern of needing to
invoke ./configure separately after running ./autogen.sh.

This condenses the flag-heavy compiler invocations, making
warnings easier to see. The old behaviour can be recovered
with `make V=1`.

Replace references with AM_CPPFLAGS. This worked as far back
as automake 1.6, our declared minimum version.

Add newer generated files from the autotools build.

Behavior for default_driver was different from driver-specific options
(no surrounding whitespace allowed). Comments are properly ignored now.

For consistency with plugin API docs and other plugins. Fixes trac #1971.

Fixes trac #2022.

Fixes trace #2023.

I didn't list all the trac tickets; that's what the repository
commit log is for. I prefer CHANGES just list the major highlights.

Also move the link arguments to the end for platforms which require that.

Thanks to Craig Turner for the bug report.

Add logic to ALSA driver such that it also tries greater bitdepths if device open fails with the requested depth.
