The preferred Pipewire path requires both devices being available, and that a sufficiently recent underlying core version is running on the host system. These criteria were being checked separately, which required two separate instances of enumerating the Pipewire registry, which is a fairly heavy operation. Move the version info callback to the main hotplug thread to avoid enumerating the registry twice, and check for both the version and required devices at the same time on the preferred path.
