Changes
Recently I changed the way we work with data in the playback code to use elements. As a result we can now more easily pass the complete queue entry everywhere and read the data we want from it. So the big state classes will slowly empty out.
With this PR the media stream state is no longer a thing. Instead you can just read the media stream from the queue entry. The player backend now receives an entry to allow full access. This is required for my next PR that adds audio normalization support.
I'm still working on some more changes to the media stream resolving, so I've left the existing implementation without much changes. It will need to be changed quite a bit to allow track switching for video playback (selecting subtitles or audio tracks).
