for clarity, this includes docs which were previously omitted
(presumably) intentionally, but mark them as comments.
the getrec() and getmute() functions' docs are moved around, so they
appear in pairs with their set*() counterparts, like the *volume() ones
already did.
notably, this also fixes the docu of PCM_FORMAT_U8, which closes#104.
* First version documentation PCM.info() method.
* Add reference to documentation to docstring for PCM.info() method.
* Add extra fields to info dict:
card_no *index of card* integer (negative indicates device not associable with a card)
device_no *index of PCM device* integer
subdevice_no *index of PCM subdevice* integer
and update documentation accordingly.

* Use `pcmtype` keyword for range
Update methods that accept a `direction` argument (i.e.
capture/playback) to get this via positional _or_ keyword arguments.
Code using keyword arguments can be more robust; however the main reason
for this change is to prepare the way for an extra `units` argument to
many of these methods.
Update documentation to consistently use `pcmtype` instead of
a mixture of that and `direction`.
* Support units
SND_PCM_FORMAT_S24_LE and similar are for 24bit ints packed in 4-bytes each.
There is a similar family of formats for 3-bytes packed data (as stored in 24bit wave files).
This commit:
- adds S24_3LE, S24_3BE, U24_3LE, U24_3BE PCM formats to the alsaaudio.c
- updates documentation
- updates playwav.py to correctly play typical 24Bit PCM wave files
Closes#38
- Avoid internal re-opening of PCM objects when parameters change.
- PCM objects can be opened by card id
- Mixer objects can be openend by card index
(this is not consistent, but ALSA works this way)
- Adjusted and cleaned up documentation.
