Summary: Looping CD/MP3 audio

Initial Comment:
This should fix bug #549544 ("CD audio/mp3 music does
not loop").

For the CD case the code to handle looping was already
there - at least in the SDL backend - but slightly
broken. I've changed it so that when told to play one
whole CD track, it plays only that track, not every
track starting from that one.

I haven't checked the other backends.

The MP3 version didn't even try to loop. I've added
some code to fix that.

There are still some glitches that I know of that are
*not* fixed by this patch:

* When playing from CD, the old track doesn't stop when
you load a savegame.

* When playing from CD, pausing the game does not pause
the music.

* When playing from MP3, there's a brief noise at the
end of the track. It's as if the mixer is trying to
loop the track on its own, but only for a fraction of a
second. I'm not sure why. I guess the easiest
workaround would be to lie and tell ScummVM that the
tracks are just a little bit shorter than they really are.
