upgrade to FluidSynth 2.3.6 to avoid broken chorus bug in Windows #19

Currently, the Chorus effect in FluidSynth plugin does not sound correct in Windows. This is due to a bug in recent released binaries of FluidSynth, but is now fixed in FluidSynth 2.3.6.

The workaround in the meantime is to manually replace the plugin's copy of libfluidsynth-3.dll with the version included with the FluidSynth 2.3.6 Windows release.

Hello mrbumpy409,

great that the simple library replacement works as intended. This FluidSynth bug seems very tricky.

This is a good example that using dynamically linked libraries has been a good idea... (although your issue #15 might give another impression).

I shall update all distributions once I have rectified the dynamic library issue mentioned above.
