Add import tracker files (.mod files) #6017

There are tons of old school mod files out there, and it would be great if one could import them with LMMS to tweak them.

I have a proof of concept module importer based on libopenmpt here: https://github.com/xTibor/lmms/tree/openmpt-import

very nice work, what else needs to be done? I guess using the original sound synths?

.mod files can use and sample mp3 files, while LMMS can't. the only way LMMS can support .mod files is by importing it like a midi file.
