/**
 * parameters for streams
 *
 * @li ARTS_P_BUFFER_SIZE (rw)
 *   The size of the internal buffers used for streaming to the server - this
 *   directly affects the latency that will occur. If you never set it
 *   explicitly, this value defaults to at least 65536 (64kb). Generally,
 *   it is important to know that the server itself gives some constraints
 *   which makes buffer sizes below a certain value impossible. So setting
 *   this parameter will always result in either getting what you wanted,
 *   or a larger streaming buffer due to server limitations.
 *
 * @li ARTS_P_BUFFER_TIME (rw)
 *   The time the buffer used for streaming to the server takes to play in
 *   milliseconds. This is just a more human readable method to set the buffer
 *   size, so setting ARTS_P_BUFFER_SIZE affects this parameter and the other
 *   way round. As aRts chooses reasonable buffer sizes for streaming (rather
 *   3*16kb than 40234 bytes), setting this parameter will often end up with
 *   a slightly larger value than you requested.
 *
 * @li ARTS_P_BUFFER_SPACE (r)
 *   The amount of bytes that can be read/written without blocking (depending
 *   whether this is a record or play stream). As requesting this parameter
 *   does a few system calls (but no remote invocation) to verify that it is
 *   up-to-date, don't overuse it.
 *
 * @li ARTS_P_SERVER_LATENCY (r)
 *   The amount of latency the server creates (due to hardware buffering)
 *   in milliseconds.
 *
 * @li ARTS_P_TOTAL_LATENCY (r)
 *   The overall latency in milliseconds it takes (at most), from the time
 *   when you write a byte into a stream, until it gets played on the
 *   soundcard. This is simply a shortcut to the sum of ARTS_P_BUFFER_TIME
 *   and ARTS_P_SERVER_LATENCY.
 *
 * @li ARTS_P_BLOCKING (rw)
 *   If this parameter is 1 (the default), arts_read/arts_write will block
 *   when not all data can be read/written successfully, and wait until it
 *   works. If this parameter is 0, arts_read/arts_write will return
 *   the number of successfully read/written bytes immediately.
 *
 * @li ARTS_P_PACKET_SIZE (r)
 *   This returns the size of the packets used for buffering. The optimal
 *   size for arts_stream_write is always writing one packet. The buffering of
 *   streams works with audio packets. So the ARTS_P_BUFFER_SIZE parameter of
 *   streams (which specifies how many bytes of a stream are prebuffered),
 *   really consists of (ARTS_P_PACKET_SIZE) * (ARTS_P_PACKET_COUNT).
 *
 * @li ARTS_P_PACKET_COUNT (r)
 *   This returns the number of the packets are used for buffering. See
 *   ARTS_P_PACKET_SIZE for more.
 *
 * @li ARTS_P_PACKET_SETTINGS (rw)
 *   This is a way to configure packet size & packet count at the same time.
 *   The format is 0xCCCCSSSS, where 2^SSSS is the packet size, and CCCC is
 *   the packet count. Note that when writing this, you don't necessarily
 *   get the settings you requested.
