* added new LSCP command: SEND CHANNEL MIDI_DATA which can be used by
  frontends to send MIDI messages to specific sampler channel
* added two additional fields to GET FILE INSTRUMENT INFO command -
  KEY_BINDINGS and KEYSWITCH_BINDINGS
* InstrumentResourceManager::GetInstrumentInfo now scans the specified
  instrument file only if it is not loaded in the instrument manager
