The recent commit c867aa8a84 ("alsamixer: use background color
instead of COLOR_BLACK") changed the behavior of alsamixer to take the
system default background color instead of black. This caused
problems on the terminal setups that have bright background colors,
e.g. yellow is very hard to read.
It could be "fixed" by setting up the color configurations in
~/.config/alsamixer.rc, but this needs to change the all colors in
every element, which is pretty cumbersome. Instead, this patch
extends the config set command to allow user to specify the default
background color. A user like me can create their own
~/.config/alsamixer.rc file containing the line
set background black
and the old good black background is back again.
Note that, for achieving the above, we also had to shuffle the
function call order, to parse the config at first, then initialize
curses. This shouldn't matter for other behavior.

Added sections FILES and CONFIGURATION.
Removed section BUGS, because the described terminal issues have been fixed.

For multichannel mixer controls, add the channel name to each screen
control.
Also make some other small changes.

Improved the usability of alsamixer:
- the mute/unmute appears in a separate box below the volume bar
more obviously
- the capture switch appears below the volume bar, too
- the controls without volume doesn't show volume bars
- fixed bugs with all view mode
- fixed the calculation of volume bar size
- show left/right scrollable status
- code clean up
This patch converts hyphens to minus signs in the man pages (for options,
emails, or command line examples).
This patch also closes one font modifier in iecset.1.

*
* * don't abort if snd_mixer_* functions failed due to EINTR,
* we simply retry on the next cycle. hopefully asoundlib preserves
* errno states correctly (Jaroslav can you asure that?).
*
* * feature WINCH correctly, so we make a complete relayout on
* screen resizes. don't abort on too-small screen sizes anymore,
* but simply beep.
*
* * redid the layout algorithm to fix some bugs and to preserve
* space for a flag indication line. the channels are
* nicer spread horizontally now (i.e. we also pad on the left and
* right screen bounds now).
*
* * various other minor fixes.
*
* * indicate whether ExactMode is active or not.
*
* * fixed coding style to follow the GNU coding conventions.
*
* * reverted record volume changes since they broke ExactMode display.
*
* * composed ChangeLog entries.
