New endpoint to show if any speaker is running

[zperee]

To be able to show if any speaker is running (e.g in Apple Home Kit as a Switch) created a new endpoint which returns true if any speaker has the playBackState === "PLAYING" otherwise return false.

With the new endpoint it is possible together with homebride and the hombridge-http-switch plugin to stop all speakers from Apple Home Kit. The new endpoint is needed to display the state of the button. So if a speaker is running turn switch on otherwise turn switch off.

{
     "accessory": "HTTP-SWITCH",
     "name": "Sonos",
     "switchType": "stateful",
     "timeout": 3000,
     "offUrl": "http://localhost:5005/pauseall",
     "onUrl": "http://localhost:5005/resumeall",
     "statusUrl": "http://localhost:5005/anyplayeron",
     "statusPattern": "{\"anyOn\":true}"
}

Excellent, this is exactly what I wanted t do.

I'd also like to have an endpoint that lets me control the speaker LED. It's in the Sonos api but I have not yet found where it could be added in the Sonos-http-api

That would give me a quick visual indication as to the state of the speaker as I'd like to mute it overnight

I can't really comprehend what this code does, it should be as simple as just running the some() aggregation.

What's the purpose of this setTimeout?

Nothing here is a promise, so not sure why you return an object with { promises: bool }

This should probably be in it's own action file, since it doesn't really have anything to do with play/pause all functionality.
