The previous fix queued `DeletePlaybackStream` from `Stream::drop` but returned immediately. Because the delete is processed asynchronously on the reactor and the play_all driver thread only exits *after* the reactor wakes it, a process that exits shortly after dropping the Stream can race the worker threads — the delete may never reach the server, leaving exactly the leak this PR set out to fix. Store the spawned threads' JoinHandles on `Stream` and join them in `Drop` after signalling cancellation. Skip handles whose thread id matches the current thread, since the user's error_callback runs on those workers and may itself drop the Stream; joining ourselves would deadlock. Mirrors the pattern roderickvd is introducing for PipeWire in RustAudio#1187.
