This patch adds a new feature to the core which allows to send
messages to objects. An object can register/unregister a message
handler with pa_core_message_handler_{register, unregister}() while
a message can be sent to the handler using the pa_core_send_message()
function. A message has 4 arguments (apart from passing the core):
recipient: The name of the message handler that will receive the message
message: message command
message_parameters: A string containing additional parameters
response: Pointer to a response string that will be filled by the
message handler. The caller is responsible to free the string.
The patch is a precondition for the following patches that allow clients
to send messages to pulseaudio objects.
There is no restriction on object names, except that a handler name
always starts with a "/". The intention is to use a path-like syntax,
for example /core/sink_1 for a sink or /name/instances/index for modules.
The exact naming convention still needs to be agreed.
