/*
Demonstrates integration of Steam Audio with miniaudio's engine API.

In this example a HRTF effect from Steam Audio will be applied. To do this a custom node will be
implemented which uses Steam Audio's IPLBinauralEffect and IPLHRTF objects.

By implementing this as a node, it can be plugged into any position within the graph. The output
channel count of this node is always stereo.

Steam Audio requires fixed sized processing, the size of which must be specified at initialization
time of the IPLBinauralEffect and IPLHRTF objects. This creates a problem because the node graph
will at times need to break down processing into smaller chunks for it's internal processing. The
node graph internally will read into a temporary buffer which is then mixed into the final output
buffer. This temporary buffer is allocated on the stack and is a fixed size. However, variability
comes into play because the channel count of the node is variable. It's not safe to just blindly
process the effect with the frame count specified in miniaudio's node processing callback. Doing so
results in glitching. To work around this, this example is just setting the update size to a known
value that works (256). If it's set to something too big it'll exceed miniaudio's processing size
used by the node graph. Alternatively you could use some kind of intermediary cache which
accumulates input data until enough is available and then do the processing. Ideally, Steam Audio
would support variable sized updates which would avoid this whole mess entirely.
