Changes the mper-derived track_id published over MQTT from hex to
decimal, and updates queue_next to embed the value in the DACP
persistentid query without a 0x prefix, matching the new format.
Queueing behavior (command=add&mode=3) is unchanged.

An unrelated change in a prior commit swapped stop_play() for
release_play_lock(NULL), which isn't declared in rtsp.h and broke
the build with an implicit-declaration error.

The 'mper' handler cast the raw big-endian persistent-id bytes directly
to a host-native uint64_t, which reverses the value on little-endian
hosts (e.g. Raspberry Pi). metadata_hub.c already reconstructs the same
field correctly by applying ntohl() to each 32-bit half; mqtt.c now does
the same, so the published track_id matches the real dmap.persistentid
and can be used directly with the queue_next command.

Sends ctrl-int/1/cue?command=add&query='dmap.persistentid:0x<id>'&mode=3
to the DACP source, where <id> is the hex track_id string taken directly
from the MQTT payload after "queue_next ".

Enable the AirPlay 2 build to operate an optional classic-AirPlay-only service or to gracefully degrade to classic AirPlay, as follows:
1. Add a new command-line option '-—service-type=<type>' and an equivalent configuration entry 'service_type = "<type>"' in the 'general' section of the configuration file,
where <type> can be "auto", "classic" or "airplay2":
1. "auto" (default) means that the service will be AirPlay 2 if NQPTP is running. If NQPTP is not running, classic AirPlay service will be provided instead, and in that case,
"(Classic)" will be appended to the default AirPlay service name visible to AirPlay clients like Apple Music, for example "RaspberryPi3B (Classic)".
2. "classic" means the service will be classic AirPlay (aka AirPlay 1).
3. "airplay2" means the service will be the modern AirPlay 2. In this case, as distinct from "auto", if NQPTP is not running, Shairport Sync will log an error and terminate.
2. In the systemd service file, NQPTP is now a "Want" rather than a "Require". If it's present, then it will be launched before Shairport Sync. If it's absent, Shairport Sync will launch anyway.
3. Improve the delivery of input format changes and emit 'sdsc' metadata when changes occur.
4. Emit new format information in the log if statistics is enabled.
Docker Changes
1. Support for linux/arm/v6 has been dropped, as Docker is no longer supported.
2. NQPTP is not started in the AirPlay 2 Docker image if '--service-type=classic' or '--service-type=airplay1' is in the command line options at the end of the docker run command.
The purpose is to ensure that ports 319 and 320 are left alone when the AirPlay 2 image is set to provide Classic service only.
Note that setting the configuration file 'service_type' to 'classic' will not prevent NQPTP from starting up -- you must use the command line option.
3. A new "dev" target has been added. It is a large image containing the custom-built FFmpeg library, NQPTP, Avahi and D-Bus along with the Shairport Sync source and
all necessary development tools. When started, Avahi, D-Bus and NQPTP are all installed and running. The bash shell has also been added and is entered.
Stability Improvements
Reorganise session preemption to fully terminate the existing session before starting a new one.
Don't delay closing the event port to wait for it to be closed at the client end.
Add a safe_socket_close() function to ensure sockets are fully closed. Use -1 to designate closed rather than 0, to prevent attempts to reclose sockets, causing mayhem.
Re-order FFmpeg decommissioning during teardown.
1. check_classic_mac_basic.yml — update to latest macOS-latest
2. docker-on-push-tag-or-pr — dependant updates
3. FFTConvolver — fix a compilation warning when the DEBUG flag is turned off
4. Reorganise some source files — e.g. move most of the metadata stuff into a subdirectory
5. Remove unused special-purpose AirPlay 2 RC event handler.
6. Reorganise source files and source code relating to the standard event handler.
7. Check configuration settings a little more carefully to offer more meaningful diagnostics.
8. Add password to AirPlay 2 and reorganise initialisation to set AirPlay 2 flags accordingly. Also, remove redundant airplay_pin.
9. Remove redundant debug facility definitions from common.h
10. Make it possible to omit all the dacp stuff from a build.
11. Make it possible to omit metadata multicast from a build.
12. Add AP2-native metadata by setting bit 50 of features to true.
13. Improve stability when pre-empting an existing play session.
14. Fix a few compiler warnings in the pair_ap library.
15. Ensure that the audio format is known before starting synchronisation.
16. Improve handle_configure to set/clear a new config setting. Doesn’t seem to do anything…
17. Experimentally turn off bit 46 of AirPlay 2 features — seems to stop failing pair-verify attempts.
- 48,000 frames per second operation,
- 48k lossless stereo, 5.1 and 7.1 surround sound
- Multichannel and multi rate operation on ALSA, PipeWire, PulseAudio, FreeBSD, stdout and unix pipe output backends.
Automatic, flexible and controllable output format (rate, sample format and channel count) selection.
Full FFmpeg integration to support transcoding, resampling, and new audio formats.
Better operation on lower powered devices down to e.g. Raspberry Pi B.
Reduced Docker image sizes with a slimmed-down FFmpeg library.
Enhanced timestamp handling for better synchronization.
Improved the sync error calculation.
A new "vernier" resampling and interpolation method for low-power CPUs.
Bug fixes and minor enhancements.
Note -- there are many breaking changes from previous versions of Shairport Sync!
