Original Notes (adapted)
Implementation and Integration of Oculus Audio SDK for VR Audio Spatialization
- Adding new audio extension which wraps the oculus audio sdk and the new XAPO plugin
- Adding new XAPO (Xaudio2 Audio Processing Object) effect for processing mono audio source streams inside the new module
- Added new enumeration which allows users to select which spatialization algorithm to use for spatialized mono sources
- Refactored the regular sound source spatialization/effect in XAudio2 device code to support the new HRTF mono-to-stereo effect
- Designed feature so that if the sound spatialization module isn't used, the spatialization will default to normal spatialization algorithm
Notes on implementation:
- Because the audio engine doesn't bifurcate spatialized vs. non-spatialized sound sources into separate source pools, I had to create up-front the effects for the full number of supported sounds 32). This is because the oculus sdk requires at initialization the total number of sound sources that will be used in the SDK.
- Because the oculus SDK refers to sound source instances by index (into the pre-allocated array of sources set at init), I had to save each sound source's index so that it can be used on the HRTF XAPO effect, and then piped to the oculus SDK inside the UE audio extension.
- The audio engine assumes that mono-sources will be treated a certain way (during send-routing and spatialization). Because this new HRTF effect is effectively turning mono-sources into stereo-sources, some code had to be changed to send/route these audio sources as if they were stereo.
- This implementation is slightly different than the original GDC implementation to better work with multiple audio devices. Each audio device creates an IAudioSpatializationAlgorithm object which contains the oculus HRTF processing contexts.

- Created audio device manager which manages weak ref handles to audio devices
- Audio device handles are created with WorldContexts and accessed through UWorld objects
- All access to audio devices are now through audio device handles
- There is a main/default audio device for GEngine for use with the Editor and single worldcontext games

Removed GVolumeMultiplier and added an equivalent to FApp to contain the code to load the unfocused volume multiplier from config.
UE-4449 - Allow users to choose whether audio can be heard when focus is lost

- Fixes looping issue with ADPCM samples
- Fixes Android not looping sound cues correctly
- Fixes one shot sound ADPCM problems where sound would get cut early
- Removed Android Audio Device update function - was never called and did nothing anyway so this will improve clarity
Changed ADPCM decompressor so that it uses the same code to decompress a full file as it does when streaming - old code was correct it was just silly have it duplicated.

Updated android audio device/buffers/souce to support creation of procedural data from a sound source. Tested with MOD replay in QA test level.

Changed the routine which decides which format so that it only does the compare once and then returns that value for the whole cook.

Added support for ADPCM decoding.
Added 'sound type' information to USoundWave
- Android uses this to detect which type of asset it needs to deal with
Added support for selected encoding type via project settings

New files added to contain FVorbisAudioInfo and FOpusAudioInfo, added all necessary includes
Added a few more checks for whether the target platform supports audio streaming where appropriate
Moved #define to .h file as it was being used in two .cpp files (working because of unity build)
