Some emulated audio devices allow guests to select very low
sample rates that the audio subsystem doesn't support. The lowest
supported sample rate depends on the audio backend used and in
most cases can be changed with various -audiodev arguments. Until
now, the audio_bug function emits an error message similar to the
following error message

A bug was just triggered in audio_calloc
Save all your work and restart without audio
I am sorry
Context:
audio_pcm_sw_alloc_resources_out passed invalid arguments to
 audio_calloc
nmemb=0 size=16 (len=0)
audio: Could not allocate buffer for `ac97.po' (0 samples)

and the audio subsystem continues without sound for the affected
device.

The fact that the selected sample rate is not supported is not a
guest error. Instead of displaying an error message, the missing
audio support is now logged. Simply continuing without sound is
correct, since the audio stream won't transport anything
reasonable at such high resample ratios anyway.

The AUD_open_* functions return NULL like before. The opened
audio device will not be registered in the audio subsystem and
consequently the audio frontend callback functions will not be
called. The AUD_read and AUD_write functions return early in this
case. This is necessary because, for example, the Sound Blaster 16
emulation calls AUD_write from the DMA callback function.
