#688: Paprefs should use server version when checking for modules

-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
 When paprefs checks for availability of modules, it does so using a
 compiled-in path to the directory where they live. However, the module
 path contains the version number of libpulse.

 This means paprefs must be recompiled whenever libpulse is upgraded, even
 though it does not link against libpulse at all!

 It would be much better if paprefs would obtain the current server/library
 version and use that to construct the path to the modules files.

 Ideally, libpulse would export a function to check if a given module is
 available for loading...
