/// AudioCapturer
///
/// An AudioCapturer is an interface returned from an fuchsia.media.Audio's
/// CreateAudioCapturer method, which may be used by clients to capture audio
/// from either the current default audio input device, or the current default
/// audio output device depending on the flags passed during creation.
///
/// ** Format support **
///
/// See (Get|Set)StreamType below. By default, the captured stream type will be
/// initially determined by the currently configured stream type of the source
/// that the AudioCapturer was bound to at creation time. Users may either fetch
/// this type using GetStreamType, or they may choose to have the media
/// resampled or converted to a type of their choosing by calling SetStreamType.
/// Note: the stream type may only be set while the system is not running,
/// meaning that there are no pending capture regions (specified using CaptureAt)
/// and that the system is not currently running in 'async' capture mode.
///
/// ** Buffers and memory management **
///
/// Audio data is captured into a shared memory buffer (a VMO) supplied by the
/// user to the AudioCapturer during the AddPayloadBuffer call.  Please note the
/// following requirements related to the management of the payload buffer.
///
/// ++ The payload buffer must be supplied before any capture operation may
///    start.  Any attempt to start capture (via either CaptureAt or
///    StartAsyncCapture) before a payload buffer has been established is an
///    error.
/// ++ The payload buffer may not be changed while there are any capture
///    operations pending.
/// ++ The stream type may not be changed after the payload buffer has been set.
/// ++ The payload buffer must be an integral number of audio frame sizes (in
///    bytes)
/// ++ When running in 'async' mode (see below), the payload buffer must be at
///    least as large as twice the frames_per_packet size specified during
///    StartAsyncCapture.
/// ++ The handle to the payload buffer supplied by the user must be readable,
///    writable, mappable and transferable.
/// ++ Users should always treat the payload buffer as read-only.
///
/// ** Synchronous vs. Asynchronous capture mode **
///
/// The AudioCapturer interface can be used in one of two mutually exclusive
/// modes: Synchronous and Asynchronous.  A description of each mode and their
/// tradeoffs is given below.
///
/// ** Synchronous mode **
///
/// By default, AudioCapturer instances are running in 'sync' mode.  They will
/// only capture data when a user supplies at least one region to capture into
/// using the CaptureAt method.  Regions supplied in this way will be filled in
/// the order that they are received and returned to the client as StreamPackets
/// via the return value of the CaptureAt method.  If an AudioCapturer instance
/// has data to capture, but no place to put it (because there are no more
/// pending regions to fill), the next payload generated will indicate that their
/// has been an overflow by setting the Discontinuity flag on the next produced
/// StreamPacket.  Synchronous mode may not be used in conjunction with
/// Asynchronous mode.  It is an error to attempt to call StartAsyncCapture while
/// the system still regions supplied by CaptureAt waiting to be filled.
///
/// If a user has supplied regions to be filled by the AudioCapturer instance in
/// the past, but wishes to reclaim those regions, they may do so using the
/// DiscardAllPackets method.  Calling the DiscardAllPackets method will cause
/// all pending regions to be returned, but with `NO_TIMESTAMP` as their
/// StreamPacket's PTS.  See "Timing and Overflows", below, for a discussion of
/// timestamps and discontinuity flags. After a DiscardAllPackets operation,
/// an OnEndOfStream event will be produced.  While an AudioCapturer will never
/// overwrite any region of the payload buffer after a completed region is
/// returned, it may overwrite the unfilled portions of a partially filled
/// buffer which has been returned as a result of a DiscardAllPackets operation.
///
/// ** Asynchronous mode **
///
/// While running in 'async' mode, clients do not need to explicitly supply
/// shared buffer regions to be filled by the AudioCapturer instance. Instead, a
/// client enters into 'async' mode by calling StartAsyncCapture and supplying a
/// callback interface and the number of frames to capture per-callback. Once
/// running in async mode, the AudioCapturer instance will identify which
/// payload buffer regions to capture into, capture the specified number of
/// frames, then deliver those frames as StreamPackets using the OnPacketCapture
/// FIDL event. Users may stop capturing and return the AudioCapturer instance to
/// 'sync' mode using the StopAsyncCapture method.
///
/// It is considered an error to attempt any of the following operations.
///
/// ++ To attempt to enter 'async' capture mode when no payload buffer has been
///    established.
/// ++ To specify a number of frames to capture per payload which does not permit
///    at least two contiguous capture payloads to exist in the established
///    shared payload buffer simultaneously.
/// ++ To send a region to capture into using the CaptureAt method while the
///    AudioCapturer instance is running in 'async' mode.
/// ++ To attempt to call DiscardAllPackets while the AudioCapturer instance is
///    running in 'async' mode.
/// ++ To attempt to re-start 'async' mode capturing without having first
///    stopped.
/// ++ To attempt any operation except for SetGain while in the process of
///    stopping.
///
/// ** Synchronizing with a StopAsyncCapture operation **
///
/// Stopping asynchronous capture mode and returning to synchronous capture mode
/// is an operation which takes time.  Aside from SetGain, users may not call any
/// other methods on the AudioCapturer interface after calling StopAsyncCapture
/// (including calling StopAsyncCapture again) until after the stop operation has
/// completed.  Because of this, it is important for users to be able to
/// synchronize with the stop operation.  Two mechanisms are provided for doing
/// so.
///
/// The first is to use StopAsyncCapture (not the NoReply variant). When the user's
/// callback has been called, they can be certain that stop operation is complete
/// and that the AudioCapturer instance has returned to synchronous operation
/// mode.
///
/// The second way to determine that a stop operation has completed is to use the
/// flags on the packets which get delivered via the user-supplied
/// AudioCapturerCallback interface after calling StopAsyncCapture.  When
/// asked to stop, any partially filled packet will be returned to the user, and
/// the final packet returned will always have the end-of-stream flag (kFlagsEos)
/// set on it to indicate that this is the final frame in the sequence.  If
/// there is no partially filled packet to return, the AudioCapturer will
/// synthesize an empty packet with no timestamp, and offset/length set to zero,
/// in order to deliver a packet with the end-of-stream flag set on it.  Once
/// users have seen the end-of-stream flag after calling stop, the AudioCapturer
/// has finished the stop operation and returned to synchronous operating mode.
///
/// ** Timing and Overflows **
///
/// All media packets produced by an AudioCapturer instance will have their PTS
/// field filled out with the capture time of the audio expressed as a timestamp
/// given by the reference clock timeline. Note: this timestamp is actually a
/// capture timestamp, not a presentation timestamp (it is more of a CTS than a
/// PTS) and is meant to represent the underlying system's best estimate of the
/// capture time of the first frame of audio, including all outboard and hardware
/// introduced buffering delay.  As a result, all timestamps produced by an
/// AudioCapturer should be expected to be in the past relative to 'now' on the
/// stream's reference clock timeline.
///
/// The one exception to the "everything has an explicit timestamp" rule is when
/// discarding submitted regions while operating in synchronous mode. Discarded
/// packets have no data in them, but FIDL demands that all pending
/// method-return-value callbacks be executed.  Because of this, the regions will
/// be returned to the user, but their timestamps will be set to
/// `NO_TIMESTAMP`, and their payload sizes will be set to zero.  Any
/// partially filled payload will have a valid timestamp, but a payload size
/// smaller than originally requested.  The final discarded payload (if there
/// were any to discard) will be followed by an OnEndOfStream event.
///
/// Two StreamPackets delivered by an AudioCapturer instance are 'continuous' if
/// the first frame of audio contained in the second packet was capture exactly
/// one nominal frame time after the final frame of audio in the first packet.
/// If this relationship does not hold, the second StreamPacket will have the
/// 'kFlagDiscontinuous' flag set in it's flags field.
///
/// Even though explicit timestamps are provided on every StreamPacket produced,
/// users who have very precise timing requirements are encouraged to always
/// reason about time by counting frames delivered since the last discontinuity,
/// rather than simply using the raw capture timestamps. This is because the
/// explicit timestamps written on continuous packets may have a small amount of
/// rounding error based on whether or not the units of the capture timeline
/// reference clock are divisible by the chosen audio frame rate.
///
/// Users should always expect the first StreamPacket produced by an
/// AudioCapturer to have the discontinuous flag set on it (as there is no
/// previous packet to be continuous with). Similarly, the first StreamPacket
/// after a DiscardAllPackets or a Stop/Start cycle will always be
/// discontinuous. After that, there are only two reasons that a StreamPacket
/// will ever be discontinuous:
///
/// 1) The user is operating an synchronous mode and does not supply regions to
///    be filled quickly enough.  If the next continuous frame of data has not
///    been captured by the time it needs to be purged from the source buffers,
///    an overflow has occurred and the AudioCapturer will flag the next captured
///    region as discontinuous.
/// 2) The user is operating in asynchronous mode and some internal error
///    prevents the AudioCapturer instance from capturing the next frame of audio
///    in a continuous fashion.  This might be high system load or a hardware
///    error, but in general it is something which should never normally happen.
///    In practice, however, if it does, the next produced packet will be flagged
///    as being discontinuous.
///
/// ** Synchronous vs. Asynchronous Trade-offs **
///
/// The choice of operating in synchronous vs. asynchronous mode is up to the
/// user, and depending on the user's requirements, there are some advantages and
/// disadvantages to each choice.
///
/// Synchronous mode requires only a single Zircon channel under the hood and can
/// achieve some small savings because of this.  In addition, the user has
/// complete control over the buffer management.  Users specify exactly where
/// audio will be captured to and in what order.  Because of this, if users do
/// not need to always be capturing, it is simple to stop and restart the capture
/// later (just by ceasing to supply packets, then resuming later on).  Payloads
/// do not need to be uniform in size either, clients may specify payloads of
/// whatever granularity is appropriate.
///
/// The primary downside of operating in synchronous mode is that two messages
/// will need to be sent for every packet to be captured.  One to inform the
/// AudioCapturer of the instance to capture into, and one to inform the user
/// that the packet has been captured.  This may end up increasing overhead and
/// potentially complicating client designs.
///
/// Asynchronous mode has the advantage requiring only 1/2 of the messages,
/// however, when operating in 'async' mode, AudioCapturer instances have no way
/// of knowing if a user is processing the StreamPackets being sent in a timely
/// fashion, and no way of automatically detecting an overflow condition.  Users
/// of 'async' mode should be careful to use a buffer large enough to ensure that
/// they will be able to process their data before an AudioCapturer will be
/// forced to overwrite it.
///
// ** Future Directions (aka TODOs) **
//
// ++ Consider adding a 'zero message' capture mode where the AudioCapturer
//    simply supplies a linear transformation and some buffer parameters (max
//    audio hold time) each time that it is started in 'async' mode, or each
//    time an internal overflow occurs in 'async' mode.  Based on this
//    information, client should know where the capture write pointer is at all
//    times as a function of the transformation removing the need to send any
//    buffer position messages.  This would reduce the operational overhead just
//    about as low as it could go, and could allow for the lowest possible
//    latency for capture clients.  OTOH - it might be better to achieve this
//    simply by allowing clients to be granted direct, exclusive access to the
//    driver level of capture if no resampling, reformatting, or sharing is
//    needed.
// ++ Consider providing some mechanism by which users may specify the exact
//    time at which they want to capture data.
// ++ Allow for more complex routing/mixing/AEC scenarios and place this under
//    the control of the policy manager.
// ++ Define and enforce access permissions and downsampling requirements for
//    sensitive content.  Enforce using the policy manager.
// ++ Consider allowing the mixer to produce compressed audio.
