alsamixer shows all view names in the View: line so that user
can understand what it means. The currently used view is
shown with brackets and emphasized.
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
Support store/restore of user-defined controls.
Also, the numid is no longer checked when -F option is given.
The element is determined only from the given name, iface, index, device and
subdevice.
The volume bar and space sizes are recalculated at each time when
the view mode is changed. This will fix the problem when the view
with fewer volumes is switched to the view with more volumes.
Attached is a speaker-test man page which I believe was submitted to
Debian by James Courtier-Dutton. Please proof read it before including it.

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.

Patch for alsaconf which makes it refrain from creating
/etc/modprobe.conf if the latter does not already exist.
Creating an empty /etc/modprobe.conf is bad because if it
exists then modprobe uses _only_ this file -- it does not
use /etc/modprobe.d/.
Additionally, this patch makes alsaconf set the cleanup
trap before it creates temporary files rather than after.

It causes alsamixer to display 2 different views of the mixer controls.
One view shows only the "Playback" controls, the other view shows only
the "Capture" controls, with a hidden mode (Press F1, then Enter) to
show the old method of all controls together.
