Michał Šrajer 40a1219dac Support 24bit audio
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
