Add pipe stream support

[kosolit]

I am currently using Owntone + Shairport Sync with a pipe audio stream to airplay automatically to all speakers automatically. I also use this with Spotify Connect which works flawlessly.

As music assistant 2.0 will feature multiple speaker sync, id like to get rid of Owntone.

Is it possible to integrate the possibility to play a pipe stream with metadata via the local music files?

It would also be great if it would automatically start a pipe stream as soon as music assistant discovers a input from that stream

I think this will actually be pretty easy to implement, all the plumbing is already there in MA. I had this idea myself too to attach an actual record player and stream that to various speakers. Nice idea!

This idea never reached the backlog, I assume.

This would be covered by this request https://github.com/orgs/music-assistant/discussions/1156 and will be prioritised based on votes. So vote away!
