⚠️ Breaking changes ⚠️

• Changed signature for CustomAudioProcessor methods in template

Introduced changes

• Refactored AudioArray and AudioBus.
• Merged AudioBus and AudioBuffer into one class

Main goal of above changes is to introduce some kind of unification in operating on audio data. From today we should only use AudioArray as an abstraction over pcm channel data and AudioBuffer as vector of channels.

Rules:

• Do not break the chain -> operate over AudioArray / AudioBuffer.
• Raw float pointer can be used only while integrating with external systems/services/interfaces like: JSI, native player, native recorder, decoders, encoders etc.
• Do not create other data structures without prior checking whether any existing can be used directly or as a parent class.

Checklist

• Linked relevant issue
• Updated relevant documentation
• Added/Conducted relevant tests
• Performed self-review of the code
• Updated Web Audio API coverage
• Added support for web
• Updated old arch android spec file

Pull request overview

This PR performs a major internal refactoring of the audio utilities layer, consolidating the dual-class AudioBus/AudioBuffer system into a single AudioBuffer class and modernizing the AudioArray implementation. The changes improve memory safety through smart pointers, add modern C++ features like spans and move semantics, and convert several utility classes to header-only implementations for better optimization.

Changes:

• Renamed AudioBus to AudioBuffer throughout the entire codebase
• Enhanced AudioArray with move semantics, span support, iterator support, and new utility methods
• Introduced AudioArrayBuffer as a JSI-compatible buffer type
• Converted Windows, AudioUtils, and ParamChangeEvent to header-only implementations
• Modernized memory management from raw pointers to smart pointers
