Add support for smoothing, ignore message when controllers are
not in sync to avoid discontinuous jumps.
This is mainly useful for Mackie-like devices that use pitch-bend
messages for faders.

"last_controllable_value" is using midi value range (0..127).
It is used to compare received midi-value with the actual controllable
for non-motorized surfaces, and this change allows the first
event to already be in_sync.
Previously the first MIDI-event was usually ignored (because
last_controllable_value was out of bounds or didn't match the 0..127
range.
Since we (since ddfc37e4) set the UserDown flag for the User button actions, we
need to set it also when we lookup actions when saving the state.
Furthermore, we need also look for the UserDown flag, when we set the state
of the configuration combos for the User button.
Continued work after e9b36f2bea. Prefer a shared_ptr<>.
MIDIControllable::write_feedback() runs in realtime context, directly
from the main process-thread. Synchronizing weak-pointers and deletion
across threads does not work reliably. Retaining a shared_ptr<> for
controllables that are in use can solve this.
This fixes a race-condition when a controllable is deleted
while sending feedback to the device.
Previously there was a race-condition MIDIControllable::write_feedback()
triggered from rt-thread, processed in Surface-thread and deleting
a route or processor.
This is a first step, currently state-restore is not fully functional
session->controllable_by_id() does not cover all Controllables.
(bool) false == 0 == (const char*) NULL
error: ISO C++ says that these are ambiguous, even though the worst
conversion for the first is better than the worst conversion for the second:
actions.h:92: note: candidate 1: Glib::RefPtr<Gtk::Action> ActionManager::get_action(const char*, const char*, bool)
actions.h:91: note: candidate 2: Glib::RefPtr<Gtk::Action> ActionManager::get_action(const std::string&, bool)
For MSVC, the parameter 'false' (i.e. 0) can be considered as either a bool or a pointer - so it'll map to both declarations of ActionManager::get_action()
