libsamplerate binding for Golang

This is a Golang binding for libsamplerate (written in C), probably the best audio Sample Rate Converter available to today.

A classical use case is converting audio from a CD sample rate of 44.1kHz to the 48kHz sample rate used by DAT players.

libsamplerate is capable of arbitrary and time varying conversions (max sampling / upsampling by factor 256) and comes with 5 converters, allowing quality to be traded off against computation cost.
