6c81444a52 aplay: improve available conditions for '--samples' and '--duration' options
Either '--samples' ('-s') and '--duration' ('-d') option is available
exclusively, according to its semantics and actual implementation.

This commit improves description of manual at this point.

8b0cdffe09 aplay: add a paragraph for '--samples' ('-s') option to aplay manual
A '--samples' ('-s') option was added so that record/playback process is
terminated after handling the same number of PCM frames as a value of the
option. However this option is not described in aplay manual.

This commit adds a paragraph for the option.

f79082df38 aplay: delete paragraph for obsoleted '--sleep-min' ('-s') option from aplay manual
A '--sleep-min' option was already obsoleted for aplay. On the other hand,
a paragraph for the option was left as is.

This commit deletes the paragraph.

000bf230cf aplay: More support for channel map option
Now aplay tries to follow the given channel map by rearranging the
channels even when the channel map override isn't allowed but if the
device is still capable to return a channel map.

Also update the man page appropriately.

d67a965aec aplay: Add -i option for interactive mode
The recent addition of pause/resume control via keyboard brought
a problem when aplay/arecord is invoked in background.  For avoiding
regressions, it's safer to use non-interactive mode as default and
enable the new feature via an option.

5f9f0e817c split interleaved files in arecord when reaching 2GB
From: Dirk Jagdmann <doj@cubic.org>

This patch will split files in chunks of aprox. 2GB in the interleaved
recording mode of arecord. This is meant to overcome the 2GB filesize
limit of .wav files, which is easily reached when recording multiple
channels.

504131b582 alternative peak meter for aplay
From: Dirk Jagdmann <doj@cubic.org>

This patch adds an alternative peak meter for aplay/arecord which is
enabled via three "-v" command line arguments. This new mode differs
from the old in a larger meter, no linefeeds for every meter update and
a static maximum peak (for 1s).
