Ardour uses some global variables and singletons. These global variables
can be initialized with a value prior to program execution (especially
if they are const), but some of the static variables are modified, and
it is crucial that they always are reset when switching to another
session. To keep things simple and explicit and consistent, we thus
introduce Temporal::reset() to reset TempoMap (and later on also the
superclock rate). This is somewhat similar to Temporal::init(), which
usually only is invoked once (on program start) to initialize singletons
(such as the TempoMap).
9964f20c added TempoMap initialization to Session::create() ... but only
when not using a template. This create method is mainly preparing the
filesystem for a new session, and TempoMap initialization doesn't seem
like a perfect fit for it. It also seemed odd that it only initialized
TempoMap for clean new sessions, while existing sessions and templates
initialized it elsewhere.
Instead, invoke the TempoMap initialization early in the Session
creation process. This might introduce an extra and unnecessary TempoMap
initialization when loading an existing session or using a template, but
that will be cheap and do no harm, while providing a guarantee that we
always use the same default value.
