A way to switch off streams

Description

It would be useful to be able to simply switch off a stream in the volume controller. This is particularly useful if there are more than one RTP streams on the network.

What this should mean is that no work gets done with regards to that stream, which, again, probably matter most for the RTP receive module, but also means that a user setting the volume on a 'disabled' stream to something other than 100% shouldn't burn cycles doing nothing.

If directing to a null sink happens to be functionally equivalent, then perhaps all that's needed is a null sink included in the default configuration.

It is possible to explicitly "kill" a stream, though this is currently not exposed in the GUI.

The "lennart" branch in SVN now has an option to "mute" a stream in which case no processing is done for it.
