Previously the port-engine was a LIFO. Changes were pushed back
and then popped-back. This causes issues when re-connecting
Transport Masters.
The GUI does the following when changing connections:
1. disconnect all
2. connect to new port
which lead to TransportMaster::connection_handler being called
in reverse order: connect, disconnect, and the transport
master was assumed to not be connected.

Now connections queue is a FIFO and code was consolidated.
(Note, we cannot use a std::deque because it does not support
memory pre-allocation with ::reserve)
On windows this is still limited by the timer resolution, but
it's a start. This is mainly intended to be used with NDI or
other external sources without actual audio hardware.
This is mostly a simple lexical search+replace but the absence of operator< for
std::weak_ptr<T> leads to some complications, particularly with Evoral::Sequence
and ExportPortChannel.
PBD::Transmitter is neither thread-safe nor rt-safe. This likely
fixes a crash on macOS when process-threads are started.
Many threads simultaneously enter coreaudio_process_thread() and
log a message calling `PBD::info << .. << endmsg` simultaneously.
The backend holds `_port_callback_mutex` while disconnecting ports.
In some cases disconnecting a port can drop the last reference
resulting in a port-deletion from the connection handler.
This in turn will eventually aquire the `_port_callback_mutex`
and deadlock.
This is now circumvented by using atomic operations instead of
taking a lock to set the `_port_change_flag`.
The flag is also used to trigger a latency update in some cases,
atomic is preferable to taking a lock to set this flag.

This allow to restore original engine port-names as set
by the backend. ALSA MIDI, CoreAudio, CoreMIDI and PortAudio
drivers can provide human readable physical port names for
some devices.
This produces synchronous events on Audio and MIDI ports.
One rvent per second, exactly at every second since engine-start.
MIDI: C-4 Note-on/off (1 sample long)
Audio: +1/-1 transition:
+1 in sync with Note-on,
-1 in sync with Note-off
* PortEngine::available() implementation
* AudioEngine::connected() wrapper
Eventually we may re-introduce PortEngine::available along
with a libardour internal port-engine.
