af09333 LED test bar: Added copper pours for the lowest voltage net on the board, some corresponding large exposed pads for clipping onto, and silk screen for them.

bfe854e Sensorboard: finally looked at the gerber files for the Cybrid sensor, and better matched their dimensions. Got the width down to 9mm, and moved the sensor 10mm from the mounting hole center. I wouldn't be surprised if different pianos end up needing a variety of different boards, (Including ideally some boards that hold multiple sensors.) But this should serve as a better starting place.

6f696a1 Sensorboard tester: while working on the sensorboard, realized that the header on it might need to be installed backwards, to ensure clearance for hammers striking the sensor, or whatever. So I added mirrored female receptacles on the tester board, to allow for plugging in reversed sensorboards.
