Note on the use of JSON here as an interstitial format for class / method / minmax definitions...

Inspection of modules, parameters, and their value ranges requires initialising the SV engine in offline mode, and using an effectively "dummy" slot to add all the module types to. While all this can be torn down later, I'm not yet sure if this might introduce side effects.

For now it's a JSON blob in the dist, but this is very open to change.

update JSON is gone

Call this PR done when we have ...

• [ ] Tests
• [ ] Docs
• [ ] Polyphony strategies, including dynamic realtime track allocation
  • [ ] Round-robin (Maybe too naive?)
  • [ ] Stop playing oldest on n+1st note
  • [ ] Stop playing newest on n+1st note
  • [ ] Reuse track (repeated notes on same track)
  • [ ] Note-off uses note parameter to select track to receive note-off event
• [ ] Figure out interaction between slots, patterns, and pattern clones.

Nice to have (punt these out to the issues queue if required)...

• [ ] "Note-on" equivalent methods for FX and control modules[^1]
• [ ] Migration of complete module chains between slots, including connection to Output
• [ ] Slot method audio_callback
• [ ] Make ctl methods chainable : $generator->volume(50)->polyphony(4)->waveform(4);

[^1]: Think about this - is it needed when accessors are created for controls already? That is, we can already $filter->freq(123); $filter->resonance(456);
