This patch will select output format (number of channels) based on user
preferences (set by properties) or peer element capabilities.

The rationale for this patch is that liba52 can do better downmixing based on
a52 hinting than any standalone audioconvert plugin.

Without this patch, 5.1 audio (DVD source) converted to 2-channel (by
audioconvert) sounded audible more silent than it should be.
