[vorbis-dev] ogg123 HTTP streaming

I am about to commit HTTP streaming code for ogg123. This has no relation to
the discussion about "real" steaming Ogg; it just downloads and plays at the
same time. But unless you have a direct T3 connection, it'll almost definately
break up quite frequently. Solution? Buffer. But I have other things to work
on for the rest of the day...

Any screaming objections?

This has been tested on some of the example files up at www.vorbis.com. It has
no proxy support, no HTTP authentication, or any other nice stuff like that.
Just do, e.g.,

% ogg123 http://www.vorbis.com/music/blueperiod_itsover.ogg
