In the WebAssembly core, $WRK was messed after stereo oscillators, making modulations not work

An instrument (set of opcodes & accompanying values) can have any number of voices.
A track can trigger any number of voices, releasing the previous when new one is triggered.
Pattern length does not have to be a power of 2.
Only the necessary opcodes and functions of the synth are compiled in the final executable.
Harmonized support for stereo signals: every opcode supports stereo variant.
New opcodes: crush, gain, inverse gain, clip, speed (bpm modulation), compressor.
Support for sample-based oscillators (samples loaded from gm.dls).
Unison oscillators: multiple copies of the oscillator running with different detuning and added up to together.
Support for 32 and 64 bit builds.
Support different platforms: Windows, Linux and Mac (Intel).
Experimental support for compiling songs into WebAssembly.
Switch to CMake for builds.
Regression tests for every VM instruction, using CTests.
Compiling as a static library & an API to call Sointu
Running all tests (win/linux/mac/wasm) in the cloud, using Github workflows
Tools written in Go-lang:
- a tracker for composing songs as .yml
- a command line utility to convert .yml songs to .asm
- a command line utility to play the songs on command line
