ao_pulse: allow disabling timing bug workarounds
Add an option that enables using native PulseAudio auto-updated timing
information, instead of the manual calculations added in mplayer2 times.
You can use --ao=pulse:no-latency-hacks to enable the new code. The code
is almost the same as the code that was removed with commit de435ed5,
but I didn't readd some bits I didn't understand. Likewise, the option
will disable the code added with that commit.
In my tests this seemed to work well, though the A/V sync display looks
funny when seeking.
The default is still the old behavior.
See issue #959.
