TODO

• Improved multichannel support
  • Represent channel layout
• Improved support for alternative WAVE formats
  • Clear up ambiguity on use cases of WAVE_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE

    • This would also apply to AIFF-C
• Add metadata support?
  • Requires additional support for RIFF and IFF textual chunks
  • Requires handling of possible ID3 metadata
    • Using crate rust-id3
• Improved error messages
  • Revise messages throughout code
• Improved testing
  • Improve integration tests
  • Add unit tests for better coverage
• Improved examples and documentation
  • Inspect generated docs and apply revisions where needed
  • Add examples in documentation
  • Create more example programs
• Miscellaneous
  • Add a "from_buffer" function?
  • Add load_as for reading data as a different audio format?
  • Expand API?
    • Export Container::open and Container::create
  • Come up with a name!
