1. Fix naming of audio devices under PipeWire …

   Under PulseAudio, the user-friendly name for each audio device was
   stored under its `device.description` property. Under PipeWire,
   `device.description` is the name of the sound card, not the source/sink.
   This results in all source devices showing their sound card's name in
   NoiseTorch. Since I have multiple sources on the same sound card, it
   meant all my microphones had the same name, making NoiseTorch unusable.
   
   This commit changes the assignment of device names. When running under
   PipeWire, the `pulseaudio.Source.Description` field holds the correct
   device name, while the
   `pulseaudio.Source.PropList["device.description"]` field that was being
   used previously is the sound card's description.
   
   The NoiseTorch context must now be passed to the `getSources` and
   `getSinks` functions so they can check whether the program is running
   under PulseAudio or PipeWire.
