Bug#794692: pulseaudio: please build pulseaudio-module-dev

Package: pulseaudio
Version: 10.0-1+deb9u1
Followup-For: Bug #794692

Why does the API being unstable matter?  Debian isn't going to move to the next
integer version of PulseAudio within a release.  Please consider packaging this
or at the very least making the xrdp module a separate package for 
stretch-backports if not buster.  By that same inane logic you'd never ship 
kernel headers, since the kernel APIs and ABIs change all the time.

### loaded modules.

### connected to dies, similar for sources
load-module module-rescue-streams

### Cork music/video streams when a phone stream is active
load-module module-role-cork

### make sense, and module-filter-apply does the heavy-lifting of
### loading modules and rerouting streams.
