[PATCH 2/3] volume: Print a warning when volume is clipped in pa_sw_volume_multiply/divide()

[georg@xxxxxxxx (Georg Chini)]

When the volume exceeds PA_VOLUME_MAX in pa_sw_volume_multiply() or
pa_sw_volume_divide(), volume settings are insanely high and the
user should be notified about it.

This patch adds volume clamping to pa_sw_volume_divide() and prints
a warning when the volume is clipped in both functions.
