[LAU] MusE 2.2beta1: LV2 host support

[Andrew Deryabin]

Hi All!

I want to announce availability of MusE sequencer version 2.2beta1 with 
LV2 host support.

Here is the summury of supported lv2 features:

1. State interface
2. Worker interface.
3. Instance-access.
4. KX studio Programs interface + extended programs interface to support 
per-channel bank/patch change (only Yoshimi lv2 plugin now supports this 
feature).
5. Common must-have features: atom, buf-size, event, options, uri-map, urid.
6. UI interface. Supported UI subtypes:
- QT4
- GTK2
- GTKMM2
- X11
- External interfaces (from kx studio specs).
- idle callbacks

Plus:
- sample-accurate control ports automation handling via variable-length runs
- sending transport events (play/stop and bpm are now supported) to 
plugins that support  them (via event port LV2_TIME__Position)
- freewheel ports automation

This is a intermediate testing release, so bug reports, wishes and test 
results will be very valuable! :)
