* Allow changing audio device on the fly while in a server
* Use default audio device if device in config doesn't exist
* Automatically change audio device to default when current one is invalid
* Destroy Qt Multimedia support
It was decided that there was not enough attention being given to Qt
Multimedia support to justify its continued maintenance simply as a
libre alternative to BASS. While substantial changes to audio were being
made in 2.8, the Qt Multimedia support code fell behind in disrepair.
It's clear that there is no vested interest in implementing audio
features twice for the sake of licensing.
When it's time to switch to another audio library, it will be done
unilaterally.
* CI: Use BASS for Linux build

- Set lib as artifact instead of cache (to avoid race condition
described in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/21409)
- Delete _Unadapted folder and .git files when exporting artifact (yuck!
should probably have never incorporated AO2-Themes as a separate
repo; it should probably have stayed part of the vanilla repo.)
- A preconfigured config.ini is probably not useful these days. There's
an options menu now.
- Removed gs4 background - already in vanilla pack.
- Themes submodule should probably be configured to track master. Meh.
Submodules can be so finicky. It probably doesn't belong in this repo
anyway - it should be in the vanilla repo (currently invisible).
Due to a countless number of changes made to the core that were not
fully understood, tested, or documented, it was decided to roll
everything back to the last known stable version (2.6.2).
Changes dropped include:
- Witness needed
- Shake
- Frame SFX
- Multiple custom objections
- Multithreaded thumbnail generation
- Looping
- Various translation additions
- "Mirror IC"
- Color in IC log
- An invocation of clang-format
Next time, work together and split your big fork into independently
testable feature branches.
