The old mechanism made it difficult to follow exactly what happens
when a button was clicked, because the Action/Bool that gets
executed / toggled was declared ages ago, in the constructor. In the
new mechanism, the Action / Bool is bound to the button at the last
minute, right before Layout. ActionButton, ToggleButton,
ActionIconButton and ToggleIconButton were done to avoid heap
escapes: if the corresponding functions woudl've returned
layout.Widget, a heap allocation would've been needed.
In addition to the oscilloscope and loudness/peak detections, this
commit refactors all the channels between components (i.e.
ModelMessages and PlayerMessages) etc. into a new class Broker. This
was done because now we have one more goroutine running: a Detector,
where the loudness / true peak detection is done in another thread.
The different threads/components are only aware of the Broker and
communicate through it. Currently, it's just a collection of
channels, so it's many-to-one communication, but in the future,
we could change Broker to have many-to-one-to-many communication.

Notetracking was used in two completely different meanings: the
pitch/bpm notetracking in the delay unit and the cursor follow in
when playing. The word for the second meaning was changed to Follow,
to avoid confusion.
The Model was getting unmaintanable mess. This is an attempt to refactor/rewrite the Model so that data of certain type is exposed in standardized way, offering certain standard manipulations for that data type, and on the GUI side, certain standard widgets to tied to that data.
This rewrite closes#72, #106 and #120.
text.Shaper is not thread safe, which caused crash when adding
multiple VSTI plugins to a DAW project. This change fixes that
crash. Further refactorings need to consider where that text.Shaper
should actually reside.
The RPC and sync library mechanisms were removed for now; they never really worked and contained several obvious bugs. Need to consider if syncs are useful at all during the compose time, or just used during intro.
send targets are now by ID and Song has "Score" part, which is the notes for it. also, moved the model part separate of the actual gioui dependend stuff.
sorry to my future self about the code bomb; ended up too far and did not find an easy way to rewrite the history to make the steps smaller, so in the end, just squashed everything.
