Version 4.1-

**Enhancement**
* Add two new metadata tokens for AirPlay 2 buffered audio streams only, which can be paused for a period of about five minutes before the session is ended. They are for Pause (`paus`) and Resume (`pres`).
* Clean up the generation of `MPRIS` and D-Bus `PlayerStatus` values. Until now, Shairport Sync used extra information to try to determine the state a session was in -- `Playing`, `Paused` or `Stopped`. The extra information used what (1) when the first frame was played, (2) when a flush was requested and when (3) frame play was resumed. Unfortunately, these are noisy signals and are unreliable for this purpose, so they are now no longer used.
The situation now is that `PlayerStatus` becomes `Playing` when a play session begins and becomes `Stopped` when a play session ends, unless it is an AirPlay 2 buffered audio session.
In the case of a AirPlay 2 buffered audio session, a play session will be `Paused` when play stops (but the play session is not ended). If play resumes within a period determined by the client (about five minutes), `PlayerStatus` will return to `Playing`. Otherwise, the play session is ended by the client and `PlayerStatus` will transition to `Stopped`.
