[Suggestion] Add smartcmd/MinecraftConsoles' implementation of MiniAudio

[Eribetra]

What would you like?
Replace the proprietary Miles audio engine with smardcmd/MinecraftConsole's (or a similar) MiniAudio implementation for Minecraft: CE.

Why?
Adding support for a more portable, open-source audio engine also allows the game to use higher quality .ogg files, instead of the default .binka which are notoriously low-quality.

Any examples or references?
smartcmd/MinecraftConsoles#624
smartcmd/MinecraftConsoles#677

I feel like a smart move would be to fork smartCmd for their stability changes, then add mod support + feature partiality. Pull down their fixes when needed and keep Whisper as a modloader with extra features stacked on top.

id love to do this but i feel like everyone would say "we stole code" but the whole meaning of open source software is to fork things.

Depends on the license behind the project, but most common OSS licenses are designed to allow it.
It's not really stealing if it's still tied to the fork network either.

thats what ive been saying, but the common consensus is that "its stealing"

True, there is a lot of moral debate around it.
