If I'm not mistaken, in the case of more than 8 channels, audioconvert will
only convert, but not do any mixing at all. So the number of input channels
will always be number of output channels in that case, and the input layout
will be the same as the output layout.

It might make sense to allow the special case of mono input => N channel output
for N > 8 as well (with output layout of all NONE), but I don't think we do
that yet.
