Add Sympal backend, enabled by default on non-windows platforms.

  • Supports seeking, scrubbing, everything.
  • Supports many many formats, but some like .mp4 videos might error out and crash at the moment

The old backend is still available using ompl main --backend rodio, which is also the default on windows. Windows made the 450 IQ decision to only allow audio streams that match the sample rate of the chosen output, so unless all your tracks are the same frequency as your sound card Sympal will crash.

Other new things this release include redone 'human' names for id3 tags and lexical sorting for the queue. Maybe more, I forgot, it's been a while.

Hopefully no emergency patches and I can work on 0.9 or maybe even 1.0
