patch to remove smpeg support

The smpeg support in current hg needs caring and love, e.g.
SMPEG_Play(void *) should really be SMPEG_Play(void *c, int)
and play_count must be handled somehow.

If noone wants to provide that care & love, I suggest that
we remove smpeg support completely: libmpg123 and libmad are
working fine in its stead.  A patch is attached.

If removal is OK'ed, I can do the same to the 1.2 branch and
port libmpg123 support there easily, too.

I say do it. Smpeg has been a dead codebase for 15+ years.

default 2.0 branch: https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL_mixer/rev/253f50984a9a

Will do the same to 1.2 branch and port mpg123 support to it soon.

SDL-1.2 branch: https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL_mixer/rev/6c862e733898

Closing.
