Subject: [PATCH] Prioritize the pipewire audio driver over ALSA
ALSA is used very rarely anymore and the pipewire ALSA emulation isn't as good as using pipewire directly. The Pulseaudio emulation is very good, and Pulseaudio is still commonly available on Linux systems, so we'll default to that first and fall back to pipewire if it's not available. We'll finally try ALSA, to handle very old systems.
Fixes https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/7541
