[LAU] [ANN] Qtractor 0.8.2 - A Stickier Tauon release

[Rui Nuno Capela]

And now for something ultimately pretty much expected: the Qstuff*
pre-LAC2017 [7][8] release frenzy wrap up!

  Qtractor 0.8.2 (a stickier tauon) is released!

Change-log:
- Track-name uniqueness is now being enforced, by adding an
auto-incremental number suffix whenever necessary.
- Attempt to raise an internal transient file-name registry to prevent
automation/curve files to proliferate across several session load/save
(re)cycles.
- Track-height resizing now meets immediate visual feedback.
- A brand new user preference global option is now available:
View/Options.../Plugins/Editor/Select plug-in's editor (GUI) if more
than one is available.
- More gradient eye-candy on main track-view and piano-roll canvases,
now showing left and right edge fake-shadows.
- Fixed the time entry spin-boxes when changing time offset or length
fields in BBT time format that goes across any tempo/time-signature
change nodes.
- French (fr) translation update (by Olivier Humbert, thanks).

Description:
  Qtractor [1] is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application
written in C++ with the Qt framework [2]. Target platform is Linux,
where the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK [3]) for audio and the
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA [4]) for MIDI are the main
infrastructures to evolve as a fairly-featured Linux desktop audio
workstation GUI, specially dedicated to the personal home-studio.
