These were being drawn in a way that failed to really convey relative
tempos very well. This is now better, though perhaps there are other
improvements possible
Major changes: do not delete and recreate markers and curves for every tempo map
change, attach tempo curves directly to their (preceding) tempo marker, notable
cleanup of TempoCurve class to remove unnecessary members.
More tweaks expected since algorithm for matching markers and tempo map
points is not correct yet.

most changes are due to a new design where tempo discontinuities at the
beginning of a ramped section may be set.
this allows easier mapping of live performance, especially in
the common case of a ramped ritard before the beginning of a new section.
feature summary:
holding constraint modifier (shift) while dragging the BBT ruler area
drags the tempo lines by changing the start tempo (as before)
holding copy modifier (control) while dragging the BBT ruler area
drags the tempo lines by changing the end tempo (ahem. not quite there)
dragging a tempo mark while holding constraint (shift) will change the
previous end tempo to match the marker position *worth trying*.
holding constraint and copy modifier (control + shift) while dragging
the BBT ruler area attempts to'pinch' or twist the surrounding tempi
sp that later ones are not repositioned (currently suffereng from
rounding errors)
- adds quarter_notes_per_minute(), note_divisions_per_minute (double)
pulses_per_minute() and frames_per_quarter_note()
- this should be a no-op except for the use of tempo by
the vst callback which definitely uses quarter notes per minute.
- the XML node for TempoSection named 'beats-per-minute'
has been renamed.
- moves frame rounding up to TempoMap, which is needed
in order to calculate pulse distance without frame rounding.
- the time unit for tempo is still minute, but this now also
applies to meter sections. (new audio locked meter sections no
longer require a frame position).
- there is no longer a discontinuity
in the pulse for audio-locked meter/tempi.
- temporarily add debugging output in Region::set_position()
to test for region beat not matching region frame.
- after reports that a tempo with non-4.0 note type
would produce a ramp in the preceding section, an incorrect
assumption was made leading to a bogus 'fix' that redefined
Tempo's pulses_per_minute().
the real fix was simple:
the ramp's function constant was calculated using the note type
of the proceding tempo rather than the current one.
- this patch reverts e82482e8e9 and a4d67279e0
and maintains the old definition of Tempo::pulses_per_minute()
