pulse-tunnel-auto.patch

This is a bit of a niche feature, but I figured we wrote the code so we might
as well share. :)

The attached patch makes sure that module-tunnel-* can use the environment and
X11 properties to figure out how to reach the PulseAudio daemon, the same way a
client would.

We use this in our Linux Remote Desktop product ThinLinc, where the client
launches its own PulseAudio daemon (so we can be sure of what goes over the
network), but we want it to talk to the local PulseAudio daemon to actually
output sound.
