Copperbox revision 3272.

I've deleted the modules Base.Impulse and Base.Behavior - they seem too "electro-acoustic" to be generally useful for Payasan (which aims for "song" generation and use with LMMS or similar). Plus I've added a Metronome module.

I've simplified the handling of pitch to two representations: a user level octave + scale degree representation and a low level MIDI note number one. I'm not going to attempt handling microtones in MIDI (technically possible with ingenious use of pitch bend) so I don't need anything more complex.

I've ported all the useful code from Majalan to Payasan, and Payasan can now generate MIDI files from scores.

As MIDI is simpler than Csound (no chance of microtonality, no electro-acoustic instruments - i.e. processors) there is quite a lot of potential to simplify and improve the imported code.

I've started a new project Payasan which will be a score language based on Majalan but targeting MIDI rather than Csound sco files. This first commit is very initial work.
