[PD-dev] CAF file support?

[Dan Wilcox]

I will also add support for AIFC files with uncompressed samples (big endian float, big endian PCM, little endian "sowt"). It's basically the same as AIFF with some extra format specifiers.

I'm in the process of testing and cleanup, then I will make a PR for people to review & test the existing functionality while I add a new d_soundfile_caff.c for CAF support in an associated branch. As this, like the previous net object updates, is touching a fundamental part of Pd, I hope for help with testing on all platforms.
