This new version of `enqueueBuffer` is now type stable and no longer performs any allocations. Benefits: * better thread safety (Julia does not allow allocations in C callbacks) * better real-time performance: less risk of garbage collection during playback. Other improvements: * fixes dancasimiro#69 such that enqueueBuffer no longer duplicates last sample of each buf in next buf * increases buffer size from 4 kiB to 16 kiB, to reduce risk of dropouts (dancasimiro#69) * modernized handling of references: callback function now receives `Ref{AudioQueueData{T,n}}` instead of `Ptr{AudioQueueData}`, so fewer unsafe_load/store! calls needed * replaced UnionAll type `Array` with concrete type `Array{T,N}` in `userData` * replaced 1-element Array hacks with Ref{}() * `AudioQueueEnqueueBuffer` is now a simple wrapper, i.e. could now also be used by a future wavrecord() extension to queue empty buffers for recording audio * new wavplay parameter assertion limits ndims of input array to 1 or 2 at compile time, thus eliminating a previous run-time check in enqueueBuffer
