This amends 730a0954 and b27bb586.
This also restores the original API for do_import()
and do_embed() as used by Lua scripts.
Note that this uses distinct IDs when importing both audio
and MIDI in the same DnD request.
This also fixes a logic error when "get_only_copy_imported_files"
was unset.
The condition under which "copy" was mandatory was rather convoluted,
so this also provides a more consistent user-experience.
Copyright-holder and year information is extracted from git log.
git history begins in 2005. So (C) from 1998..2005 is lost. Also some
(C) assignment of commits where the committer didn't use --author.
NB. this is just as unused as the POSIX link() test. Aardour
doesn't create hardlinks since version 3.0. At least it's now
consistently wrong on all platforms :)

and video in order to keep the legible
Double clicking on a file or pressing the Return key will now import it.
This means with autoplay enabled you can navigate a directory of audio files
using the up and down arrow keys and import the wanted files (with Return)
without having to touch the mouse.
Being able to use double click to import a file means you don't have to move
the mouse back and forth between the file browser and the import button.
You can still manually audition the file with space as before.
This needs further work:
Type-1 SMF are always
"One [Ardour] track per [MIDI] track"
Only type-0 SMF have the option
"One [Ardour] track per [MIDI] channel"
and
"One [Ardour] track per [MIDI] file"
This is ambiguous with multi-channel audio or multiple selection,
mixed audio+midi and worse with mixed type0/1 .mid selection.
This calls for a dedicated dropdown to select MIDI Import Disposition
for type-0 SMF.
The instrument dropdown can be very wide (depending on available synths)
and combined with other dropdowns and the copy-checkbox in a single row,
the min. width was well above 1400px.
Too many users report they import their first tracks and can't find them.
Previous default was "at file timestamp". If a file has no timestamp,
the import dialog shows "00:00:00:00" but in absence of a timestamp,
Editor::add_sources() first checks target tracks and adds add it after
the last region, then falls back to use preferred edit position as
insert point.
In the rare case where a file has timestamps it may show up a few hours
in the future.
conclusion: import-at-timestamp is not a good default.
