scsynth-sys 0.1.0

Raw FFI bindings to a statically-linked SuperCollider scsynth engine.
/*
    scsynth-rs: a host-owned audio driver for scsynth.

    This is the only modification to SuperCollider in scsynth-rs. It is NOT part of the upstream
    tree: a small build-time patch to `server/scsynth/CMakeLists.txt` adds an `AUDIOAPI=external`
    branch that compiles this file and defines `SC_AUDIO_API=SC_AUDIO_API_EXTERNAL`.

    Unlike the device-owning backends (CoreAudio/JACK/PortAudio), this driver owns no audio
    thread and no device: the host (Rust, e.g. a cpal callback) pumps it one buffer at a time by
    calling `scsynth_pump`. It is modelled on `SC_WebAudio.cpp`'s externally-driven `processBlock`
    but takes interleaved float buffers, so it suits any host audio loop.
