The Sonic Library implements a new algorithm invented by Bill Cox for the
specific purpose of speeding up speech by high factors at high quality.  It
generates smooth speech at speed up factors as high as 6X, possibly more.  It is
also capable of slowing down speech, and generates high quality results
regardless of the speed up or slow down factor.  For speeding up speech by 2X or
more, the following equation is used:

    newSamples = period/(speed - 1.0)
    scale = 1.0/newSamples;

where period is the current pitch period, determined using AMDF or any other
pitch estimator, and speed is the speedup factor.  If the current position in
the input stream is pointed to by "samples", and the current output stream
position is pointed to by "out", then newSamples number of samples can be
generated with:

    out[t] = (samples[t]*(newSamples - t) + samples[t + period]*t)/newSamples;

where t = 0 to newSamples - 1.

For speed factors < 2X, the PICOLA algorithm is used.  The above
algorithm is first used to double the speed of one pitch period.  Then, enough
input is directly copied from the input to the output to achieve the desired
speed up facter, where 1.0 < speed < 2.0.  The amount of data copied is derived:

    speed = (2*period + length)/(period + length)
    speed*length + speed*period = 2*period + length
    length(speed - 1) = 2*period - speed*period
    length = period*(2 - speed)/(speed - 1)

For slowing down speech where 0.5 < speed < 1.0, a pitch period is inserted into
the output twice, and length of input is copied from the input to the output
until the output desired speed is reached.  The length of data copied is:

    length = period*(speed - 0.5)/(1 - speed)

For slow down factors below 0.5, no data is copied, and an algorithm
similar to high speed factors is used.
