Release 1.0.0-alpha06

This is the first version with a complete new user interface
implementation. While much of it looks the same as previous
versions, it's all changed under the hood - which means there may
well be some bugs lurking. On the other hand, there are plenty of
new features too:

- Better instrument recording and a cleaner Instrument Explorer
  interface.
- Early support for the Aerophone AE-10. Yes, I realize
  the Aerophone isn't a drum kit, but it uses the same protocol
  for configuration (at least largely). There are various known
  issues with this at the moment, particularly around the
  Chorus/Reverb/MFX schema being very, very incomplete.
- "Schema Explorer" allowing you to inspect the containers and
  fields for any supported instrument.
- Many updates to schema aspects which were inaccurate in previous
  releases.

Release 1.0.0-alpha05

This is primarily to address issue 97, where multiple MIDI ports are
detected, but only one is for a Roland drum module, so we should be
able to proceed.

There are some known schema issues in the TD-27 schema which are
addressed in the new codebase but not here (as keeping track of
things in both places is really tricky).

This is likely to be the last release of the "old" code, as the
"new" code is approaching feature parity.

Changes since 0.1.0:

• Publish .NET Core 3.0 version
• Change away from 0.x to be consistent with my general thoughts on versioning
• Log the version number on startup
• Code is now signed with a personal certificate
• Remember file that was loaded, and split save/save-as functionality
• Remember overlaid containers within an edit session (e.g. switching between multi-fx options, don’t forget everything on each switch)
• Default cymbal sizes with the instrument is changed (TD-17 only for now)
• Better default values in overlays
• Add exception logging if something goes wrong when writing to the device
• Fix the Ride vedit overlay for the TD-50
• Introduce a “default kit number” in kit files, and allow it to be edited
• Improve display of the root node in Kit Explorer (no more “Kit 1”)
