Xfce4 Panel volume changer plugin for Raspberry Pi

Although xfce4 has its own volume plugins, but those have these following problems.

• Dependency on gstreamer0.10 but other programs use gstreamer1.0
• Volume can not be increased much.
• Another plugin depends on pulseaudio, but it causes several sound problem (such as, no sound in dosbox, audio player is paused automatically).

To solve these problems, i have ported lxvolume plugin to xfce. It depends only on alsa.
