[LAA] Qtractor 0.9.19 - QStuff* Winter'20 Release batch #3

Season greetings, a third and last time,

   Qtractor 0.9.19 (winter'20) is released!

Change-log:
- Session directory auto-name option added to the session properties 
dialog, as convenience.
- Loading and saving a LV2 plugin's state has been vastly improved. 
IMPORTANT CAVEAT: From this moment onwards, when loading any newer saved 
sessions into older versions of the program, all LV2 plugins won't get 
their state restored correctly.
- Track colors saturation introduced as yet another eye-candy option 
(cf. View/Options.../Display/Track color saturation)
- Fixed VST3 number of channels query/report.
- Fixed immediate crash when loading untitled or unnamed Instrument 
Definitions files (*.ins): base file-name is now taken as default 
instrument definition name or title.
- Tempo (BPM) entry may now be specified with arbitrary precision, to at 
most 3 decimal positions in fractional part, while integer whole values 
are displayed with no decimal point.
- Added option to keep MIDI clip editor windows (aka. piano-roll) always 
on top of the main window (cf. View/Options.../General/Keep editor 
windows always on top).
- MIDI clip editor status-bar labels are not stretched to whole text 
size anymore, most specially for the current file complete path.

Description:
   Qtractor [1] is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application 
written in C++ with the Qt framework [2]. Target platform is Linux, 
where the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK [3]) for audio and the 
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA [4]) for MIDI are the main 
infrastructures to evolve as a fairly-featured Linux desktop audio 
workstation GUI, specially dedicated to the personal home-studio.
