rG1b806e607f52: packages: Add a sound package

Summary

Put virtual_oss, /etc/devd/snd.conf and the other audio-related tools
into a new "sound" package. Don't create a separate -lib package,
since it's unlikely someone will want mixer(3) without mixer(8).

Put the sound package in the optional set rather than minimal, since
it's not actually required for audio hardware support, and many systems
(including nearly all servers) won't want it installed.

release/packages/ucl/sound-all.ucl
20	I would change this to something like "Audio utilities support", because the current sentence sounds as if with this package we will have OSS support, which is provided by sound(4), and not those utilities. Those just interface with it, so I am not sure this is the correct phrasing.
29	Not sure.
31	Can also adjust, like mixer(8).
