Add automatic bit depth and speed selection for alsa devices. Set rate and format to "auto" by default. Always look for the greatest bit depth, but the lowest multiple of 44,100.

Improve support for big-endian CPUs by adding support for explicit -endian formats, i.e. S16_LE, S16_BE, S24_LE, S24_BE, S32_LE, S32_BE.

For the "disable_standby_mode" setting, change "while_active" to "auto".
