It's been 5087 days since the last SDL_sound release, so I thought it
might be time for a new one. :)

A lot has changed in the last 13.93 years, including my understanding
of how to build useful open source middleware. As such, you're going
to find that the internals of SDL_sound 2 are dramatically different
than the guts of SDL_sound 1.

The most notable changes:

  * SDL_sound 2.0 is now licensed under the zlib license. The 1.x
    releases are (and continue to be) LGPL2. This matches the license
    change between SDL 1.2 and SDL 2.0.
  * SDL_sound 2.0 now uses SDL 2. SDL 1.2 is no longer supported.
  * SDL_sound 2.0 has no external dependencies. All the code you need
    to build it is included. You do not have to hunt down and figure
    out how to build third party libraries to enable support for
    various audio decoders.
  * Several decoders have been replaced with so-called "single header
    libraries" to simplify matters. You no longer need to install
    libogg and libvorbis to support .ogg files--SDL_sound just
    includes stb_vorbis as part of the source tree.
  * We have moved to CMake, because of course we have. :)
  * But also, it's now pretty simple to just drop SDL_sound's sources
    into your project and compile it directly.
  * QuickTime support is gone (because it's obsolete in modern OSes;
    macOS and iOS can still use our CoreAudio decoder for roughly the
    same effect).
  * Speex support is gone (no easy public domain code available to
    decode it).
  * MikMod support is gone (but modplug is built in and handles
    approximately the same files).

Please note that SDL_sound 2's public API has not changed at all from
SDL_sound 1, so you can just upgrade in place and, in theory, just
keep on as before.

I wrote about the motivations for the 2.0 changes here.

Note that this is release 2.0.1; there was no 2.0.0 release, but
since that's the version that revision control has listed for the
last year, we wanted to make sure that there was a differentiator in
case someone had shipped the prerelease code.

Thanks for everyone's patience; hopefully the next release won't take
another decade!
