## Description of change
Resampler:
Implement resampler for exclusive mode streams, as we are seeing more
and more devices - not just laptops but onboard audio devices - that
only support 48khz and not 44.1khz. Should work with volume boost (gain
calculated inside resample) and also downmixer (hands off intermediate
scratch buffers).
Buffer size increase:
By default many of these games request a tiny buffer when in shared mode
(TDJ uses 3ms). On some audio setup this results in crackling due to
underflow. Add an option to forcibly increase the buffer size.
## Testing
With resampler set to 48kHz and buffer set to 20ms I can reliably boot
and play IIDX on my display port monitor's speakers; previously this
wasn't possible. IIDX is event-driven.
Tested SDVX7 as well at 48kHz, which opens timer-driven streams.

## Description of change
Adds an option to downmix surround sound (5.1, 7.1, etc) down to stereo
(2 speakers). This can be used in most WASAPI games, including Gitadora
and FTT.
How it works: when the game tries to open surround format (say, 7.1) we
create a fake buffer and tell the game that it is supported. In reality
we open a 2-channel stream with the real sound card. When the stream
begins, we downmix the channels down to two (using one of many
algorithms) and output to the sound card.
While we're here, implement an option to boost the game volume by some
decibel value, which is a feature often requested by SDVX players. This
was needed since downmixing can sometimes result in quieter audio.
## Testing
Tested GW Delta and FTT.
Downmix doesn't work on IIDX (32 bits) but volume boost works.

## Description of change
Deprecate backend conversion options and replace with one unified option
for enabling WASAPI exclusive conversion to ASIO.
The new option takes in a string (ASIO driver name) and when filled out,
it automatically enables the ASIO backend.
This is to avoid confusion that was caused by the previous option - the
fact that it was split into two (one to enable the conversion, another
to optionally pick which ASIO driver to use) and that user needed to
specify an integer as opposed to the driver name.
## Testing
Tested on IIDX33. Old options should continue to work.
