The signal exists to notify listeners that something outside of the host's control (e.g. a plugin's own GUI for AU or VST)
has modified a plugin parameter. Previous code had strange feedback loops and ambiguous semantics.
Significant modification of LV2 GUI updating was required.
Still to be tested for feedback loop issues: AudioUnits
Several reasons:
* This previously looked horribly inconsistent.
* The Gtk selector was broken for plugins with many presets,
making it impossible to select presets. For whatever reason,
the use of a menu fixes this bug.
* Towards a hierarchical menu for banked presets.
When the GUI is opened the first time all is fine, focus is on the
embedded widget. However once a user presses one of the preset buttons
(Add, Save,...) there is no possibility to return focus to the
embedded widget. Ardour always 'sees' it as focus=GtkButton and passes
the event to the editor.
A Gtk::Entry might be better here, making Gtk::Label wrap based on size is tedious...

parameters marked up as scalePoint with fewer labels
than there are possible values for the parameter
(should fix#2612).

widgets the PlugUIBase makes available for subclasses.
Give up on trying to report when a VST plugin's settings
have been modified from a preset, since I think it is
impossible to do cleanly (you set the preset, then at some
point after that the plugin tells you that values have
changed using the same mechanism that it uses to report
normal user-initiated changes).

Fixes#4364.
I havn't fully tested every single dialog and window (heck, I don't even know
how to get at half of them), and there may be some packing niggles, but this is
the bulk of the work. The Gnome 3 kiddies can close their dialogs now, anyway
:)

Fix crash related to scale points when showing plugin UIs.
Fix packing of scrolled generic plugin UI so the controls expand (rather than leaving a ton of wasted empty space and using unnecessary scroll bars).

Hide scale points implementation inside specific Plugin subclass.
Don't needlessley/slowly get scale points twice for each port while building UI.
Remove dependence on specific plugin types from GenericPluginUI.
