Don't busy wait in the audio thread (ALSA)

When the emulation is paused and the ALSA backend is used, make the audio
thread wait on a condition variable instead of busy-waiting. This commit
fixes bug #7729

Since the ALSA API is not thread-safe, calls to snd_pcm_drop() and snd_pcm_prepare()
in AlsaSound::Clear() are protected by the same mutex as the condition variable in AlsaSound::SoundLoop()
to make sure that we do not call these functions while a call to
snd_pcm_writei() is ongoing.
