Bounty: Add support for system audio

[richiemcilroy]

Add support for system audio.

Should be implemented via Options struct, maybe a system_audio bool? defaulting to false.

Needs to be supported for macOS and Windows for now.

I Have a way around to pipeline audio streams so i can have the main audio stream going to speaker system can have another endpoint which can be used for syncing up with the screencapture happening.
let me know if we can execute this logic

I suggest putting this behind a feature.

[Auricmondal]

hey @MAlba124 , Can you explain it to me further? Also, can you check the PR I created just to confirm if I am on the right track?

[MAlba124]

@Auricmondal See the features section in the Cargo book. I'm thinking it should be optional to to have audio capture as not all applications will use it. As for the PR, @richiemcilroy would have to look at it.
