Make AudioOutput a Resource (#6436)

# Objective

- Make `AudioOutput` a `Resource`.

## Solution

- Do not store `OutputStream` in the struct.
- `mem::forget` `OutputStream`.

---

## Changelog

### Added

- `AudioOutput` is now a `Resource`.

## Migration Guide

- Use `Res<AudioOutput<Source>>` instead of `NonSend<AudioOutput<Source>>`. Same for `Mut` variants.
