[LAA] Qtractor 0.7.3 - A Tackier Gluon is out!

Hello there and again,

This time getting ready for the NYE. Prepare to party, the countdown has
begun... but first, let there be just one cheesier announcement ;o)

   Qtractor 0.7.3 (a tackier gluon) is released!

Everyone is strongly invited to upgrade. No excuses.

   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.

Change-log (since last cheesy release):
- Slight increase on the number of decimal digits for the plugin
parameters while on the generic plugin properties dialog. Also applied
to automation curve node value editing.
- Unlimited slack is now in effect on editing over and beyond the
current session or clip contents length, on both the main tracks and
MIDI clip editor (piano-roll) views.
- Ctrl+click and dragging the left or right edges of a clip will now
make it spill over and replicate as many clip clones as it fits in the
left or right horizontal extent.
- Added View/Note Type and Value Type command menus to the MIDI clip
editor (aka. piano-roll) which opens the possibility for discrete
shortcuts to switching views eg. Note Velocity and Controller views
(after a kind request by yubatake, thanks).
- Fixed the conversion and/or override of MIDI clip offsets when moving
and copy/pasting across tempo/time-signature changes.
- Fixed MIDI file track/channel duration estimator, which was giving
quite wrong and way too short reads.
- Fixed a drag-and-drop bug over the main tracks view, when new tracks
were being inserted at the top and not to the bottom as is normally
indicated by the floating visual placeholder.
- Fixed LV2UI_Resize handle from extension_data(LV2_UI__resize), now
passing LV2UI_Handle in first argument to ui_resize(), as found correct
and needed for resizable/scaleable LV2 UI's, most specially to ssj71's
so called Infamous Plugins, thanks.
