This is so that the source file name matches the AO name

The CoreAudio API is built around device IDs so we store the integer as string
and read it back.

Commit 5b5a3d0c broke this. The really funny thing is that this code was
actually always under "#if BYTE_ORDER == BIG_ENDIAN". The breaking
commit just edited this code slightly, but it must have failed to
compile on big endian long before (since over 1 year ago, commit d3fb58).

Before this commit, there was AF_FORMAT_AC3 (the original spdif format,
used for AC3 and DTS core), and AF_FORMAT_IEC61937 (used for AC3, DTS
and DTS-HD), which was handled as some sort of superset for
AF_FORMAT_AC3. There also was AF_FORMAT_MPEG2, which used
IEC61937-framing, but still was handled as something "separate".
Technically, all of them are pretty similar, but may use different
bitrates. Since digital passthrough pretends to be PCM (just with
special headers that wrap digital packets), this is easily detectable by
the higher samplerate or higher number of channels, so I don't know why
you'd need a separate "class" of sample formats (AF_FORMAT_AC3 vs.
AF_FORMAT_IEC61937) to distinguish them. Actually, this whole thing is
just a mess.
Simplify this by handling all these formats the same way.
AF_FORMAT_IS_IEC61937() now returns 1 for all spdif formats (even MP3).
All AOs just accept all spdif formats now - whether that works or not is
not really clear (seems inconsistent due to earlier attempts to make
DTS-HD work). But on the other hand, enabling spdif requires manual user
interaction, so it doesn't matter much if initialization fails in
slightly less graceful ways if it can't work at all.
At a later point, we will support passthrough with ao_pulse. It seems
the PulseAudio API wants to know the codec type (or maybe not - feeding
it DTS while telling it it's AC3 works), add separate formats for each
codecs. While this reminds of the earlier chaos, it's stricter, and most
code just uses AF_FORMAT_IS_IEC61937().
Also, modify AF_FORMAT_TYPE_MASK (renamed from AF_FORMAT_POINT_MASK) to
include special formats, so that it always describes the fundamental
sample format type. This also ensures valid AF formats are never 0 (this
was probably broken in one of the earlier commits from today).

IEC 61937 frames should always be little endian (little endian 16 bit
words). I don't see any apparent need why the audio chain should handle
swapped-endian formats.
It could be that some audio outputs might want them (especially on big
endian architectures). On the other hand, it's not clear how that works
on these architectures, and it's not even known whether the current code
works on big endian at all. If something should break, and it should
turn out that swapped-endian spdif is needed on any platform/AO,
swapping still could be done in-place within the affected AO, and
there's no need for the additional complexity in the rest of the player.
Note that af_lavcac3enc outputs big endian spdif frames for unknown
reasons. Normally, the resulting data is just pulled through an auto-
inserted conversion filter and turned into little endian. Maybe this was
done as a trick so that the code didn't have to byte-swap the actual
audio frame. In any case, just make it output little endian frames.
All of this is untested, because I have no receiver hardware.

The mplayer1/2/mpv CoreAudio audio output historically contained both usage
of AUHAL APIs (these go through the CoreAudio audio server) and the Device
based APIs (used only for output of compressed formats in exclusive mode).
The latter is a very unwieldy and low level API and pretty much forces us to
write a lot of code for little workr. Also with the widespread of HDMI, the
actual need for outputting compressed audio directly to the device is getting
lower (it was very useful with S/PDIF for bandwidth constraints not allowing
a number if channels transmitted in LPCM).
Considering how invasive it is (uses hog/exclusive mode), the new AO
(`ao_coreaudio_device`) is not going to be autoprobed but the user will have
to select it.
