The class now has two separate methods for setting a duration or a point
value. They MUST be used appropriately, because their behavior is different.
When ::set_duration() is used in timecode mode, an extent (inclusive-end
length) is shown rather than a length.
Some objects, such as the TimeInfoBox, now deliberately shown an inclusive end
for their "end" clock, but this not universally followed, pending more feedback
from users and investigating of conventions in other DAWs.
audio time nominally uses superclocks as its canonical unit. However
many things at a higher level only understand samples. If we
increment or decrement a superclock value by 1, the vast majority of
the time we will still get the same sample value after
conversion. Thus to correctly alter an audio time by an amount
that will manifest as 1 sample's difference, we have to use
samples_to_superclock(1)
Various operations, notably time-stretch and other filters, directly
added the generated whole-file region to the playlist.
The editor has not listed the generated Region in the RegionList.
This is required when adding locked regions to a playlist.
e.g. after a split or partition operation. It is only supposed
to be used from Playlist::add_region_internal() and
Playlist::partition_internal().
This allows to copy a property list and then selectively
replace various properties. e.g.
```
PropertyList plist (region->properties ());
plist.add (Properties::length, len);
plist.remove (Properties::start);
```

Before, the .cue file could end up with a mix of latin1 and utf-8
encodings. Utf-8 works better for many things, but that doesn't matter
when the .cue file has to be in latin-1.
Play loop, change loop-location, undo.
Undo calls Locations::set_state, takes a writer-lock,
and calls Location::set_state which emits a Changed signal.
This triggers Editor::location_changed, and if loop-location
changed while looping, update_loop_range_view() queries the
loop location, taking a reader-lock.
This leads to a recursive lock, RWLock::ReaderLock after
a RWLock::WriterLock does not cause a deadlock, however
releasing the ReaderLock effectively also unlocks the WriterLock.
This leads to a deadlock next time a writer-lock is acquired.
Sadly some popular Window Managers do not follow
freedesktop.org specifications. This results in Ardour's splash
screen obscuring session setup dialogs on those systems.
