<Sound Dev> WASAPI

[Izmar Verhage]

Hi all,

I recently joined OpenJDK after concluding that the Java Sound API seems to
have no way to speak WASAPI. In the OpenJDK sources that I checked I was
only able to find PLATFORM_API_WinOS_DirectSound.cpp and no WASAPI variant
of a similar file.

To my knowledge WASAPI should give us much lower latency than DirectSound,
regardless of whether shared or exclusive WASAPI mode is used.

Additionally DirectSound has been deprecated for quite some time.

If the only impediment to have WASAPI is that someone should build it, I
would like to work on this.

Cheers,
Izmar
