* When the user isn't requesting a custom notification, it will
be a BMediaRoster job to do it.
* Reintroduce BMediaRoster::SyncToServices, this time based on local
message passing rather than a global semaphore.
* SyncToServices is used in launch_media_server to make the process
more launch_daemon safe and faster in the average case.
* It was an error to add notifications in the media_server.
* Fixes#12717.
* Remove SyncToServices, I will probably readd it in future
but this time using a local synchronization service more than
relying on the media_server to release the semaphore.
* Due to some discussions today in mailing list I decided
to step back and retry the initial way to notify media rosters
about media services status. It is woking by using two different
notifications for reconnecting to the media_server and notifying
the local subscribers.
* This speed up the media services restart.
* Sorry for the noise and very thanks for reviewing my code to
everyone.
* The global synchro semaphore is provided with the purpose of
being used to avoid threads lock up when the media_server is in
an undefined state. There's still room for improvements.
* BMediaRoster::SyncToServices lock up on a semaphore until
the multi_audio correctly connected to the mixer.
* Move !missing_symbols.cpp in the legacy directory.
* Move useless methods in a Deprecated.cpp file.
* SetRealtimeFlags / GetRealtimeFlags are useless, they
don't make sense nowadays.
* The symbols are anyway preserved.
* Removed appearantly unused satic variables. Hope this does not break
binary compatibility, going to test.
* There are three more private methods, which could probably be removed
as well.
