Instead of having three states, stopped, paused and playing, now there's only
two states: paused and playing.
This means resume() is gone, as is isStopped(), and isPaused() has become
isPlaying(). stop() now pauses and rewinds, whereas pause() only pauses.
rewind() has been removed, and should either be replaced with stop() or
seek(0).
The same has been applied to the functions in the love.audio module, except they
get some extra magic:
- love.audio.pause() now returns a table/list of Source objects, which contains
only the sources it has just paused. This means you can then later restart
only them, instead of everything (as before).
- love.audio.play/pause/stop now have variants that take a list of Source
objects, and it starts or stops them all at the same time, this means calling
play(srcA, srcB) should mean srcA and srcB are much more (but possibly not
exactly) synchronised than they were with play(srcA); play(srcB).

branch : minor
The audio module was not really stable in 0.6.0, it takes very little messing around to cause OpenAL to do horrible things. It should now be much more stable,
and you *should* be able to play/stop/pause/resume/rewind/loop like a madman without disasters. Seek and tell, however, are still not tested and verified for
all decoders, but that's less important. Also, all objects now have object:type() and object:typeOf(), which returns the type name of the object,
and checks whether an object is of a certain type, respectively.
