Review request for KDE Multimedia.

Description
-------

Streams can also have the application.name property, which is usually not required to be read as the client lives as
long as the stream. This can happen for applications that use the pactl / pacmd command line tools, though.

Example:

$ pactl list sinks short
0       alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo      module-alsa-card.c      s16le 2ch 44100Hz       RUNNING
$ pactl load-module module-sine sink=alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo frequency=440
36
$ pactl list sink-inputs short
16      0       -       module-sine.c   float32le 1ch 44100Hz
$ pacmd update-sink-input-proplist 16 application.name="Sine Generator Application"

Without this patch, KMix displays "Unknown Application". With this patch, KMix displays the correct application name.
To unload the module, use:
$ pactl unload-module 36
