minimp3 causes iOS app store rejection due to slice_deque use

[alice-i-cecile]

Heads up, using the mp3 Bevy feature will cause your iOS app to get rejected because minimp3 depends on slice_deque which uses an internal API for memory allocation.

First reported in bevyengine/bevy#3145, but I figured I'd toss it upstream for the rodio team to look at.

Thanks for filing a bug! Outside of removing the mp3 feature entirely, it's not very actionable from the point of view of rodio. There are two better places for bugs:

• The minimp3 repo. They can switch away from slice-dequeue as it seems unmaintained.
• The slice-deque crate which does the offending internal allocations in the first place. Of course, as it is unmaintained, it is possible that you won't receive much help from its maintainer.

Great; I'll file it upstream on minimp3 and close this out then.

Minimp3 already has a bug filed for this issue from a few months back. I have now created a fork of slice_deque with the issue patched because so long has passed and dropped them a PR for this very issue. 😊
