Add AVAHI option for PULSEAUDIO

I actually know nothing about pipewire, but it's a dependency for some
must-have desktop applications.
I prefer not to have unused applications installed - especially network
related.
But I do use pulseaudio - not because preferred over jack, which I know nothing
about too, but because it's the best overlapping option for my xfce-based
desktop environment.
With this option, I can reduce the avahi-app dependency, otherwise
ungoogled-chromium (depending on pipiewire) would install this completely
unused application.

The attached patch also changes defaults: PULSEAUDIO (_without_
module-pulse-zeroconf) instead of JACK - this might be not generally
beneficial... In my case it is, but whoever decided JACK is the one to use by
default should decide if this is still the best choice.
