allow-passthrough: Add module to allow passthrough streams always go through

For various use-cases a passthrough stream should have priority over all
other streams and get exclusive access to the sink regardless of whether
any other streams are playing.

An example use-case is ensuring Kodi can successfully start video
playback (with passthrough) even if an external notification sound
happened to be playing at the same time.
