Talon c55ab24ae4 Add octave jumps and jumping to notes that exist
Arrowing cell by cell is right inside a dense bar and tedious across an
empty one. Three pairs of keys now jump straight to a note that is really
there, one pair for each axis:

  Alt+Up/Down            the column -- next pitch sounding in this cell
  Alt+Left/Right         the row    -- next note at the cursor's pitch
  Ctrl+Alt+Left/Right    anywhere   -- next note in the take, any pitch

plus Ctrl+Alt+Up/Down for whole-octave movement, which needs no scale
awareness because an octave preserves the pitch class.

All the jumps ignore muted notes, which are not audible content, and the
row and any-note jumps anchor on note starts, so a note held across eight
cells is one stop rather than eight. Landing in a chord takes whichever
note is nearest the pitch you came from rather than always the bottom one.

They sit on Ctrl+Alt rather than plain Ctrl because REAPER already uses
Ctrl+arrows to move between items.

The logic lives in the lib as usual, with four run* drivers following the
runShift pattern, so the eight new action scripts are seven lines each.

test_lib.lua previously dofile'd an absolute D:\ path and so could not run
outside one machine; it now resolves the lib relative to itself. Stubbing
MIDI_GetNote and the PPQ conversions reaches further than the old "pure
logic only" boundary, so the new tests cover the search functions and the
drivers' speech and cursor movement too.
