Window > Mix in Separate Window (window.mix_separate, kept with the UI
preferences) shows the Mix window in its own native window through an
egui immediate viewport, so Edit and Mix can be seen at once, e.g. one
per monitor. The main window then keeps Edit; Window > Mix and
Cmd/Ctrl+= bring the Mix window to the front; closing it puts Mix back
into the main window. Backends without multiple windows show it as a
floating egui window.

Applying new audio device settings replaced the player while plugin
editor windows were open: the old instances went away with it (possibly
on the audio thread, where windows cannot be closed) and their editor
windows stayed on screen orphaned. Player::close_editors closes them on
the main thread first.

Setup > Playback Engine now chooses the audio system (cpal host), output
and input device, device sample rate and buffer size, kept per machine
with the UI preferences and applied by reopening the devices (refused
while recording; the transport position is kept). ui.audio_device does
the same for agents and lists every system with its devices, channels,
rates and buffer range.
Player and recorder open the chosen device, fall back to the defaults
for anything unavailable (unplugged device, unsupported rate), retry
with the device's default buffer when the chosen one is refused, and
convert 32/16-bit integer devices from and to the f32 mix through
scratch buffers allocated up front (no allocation in the callbacks).
ASIO is behind an opt-in 'asio' feature (playback and app): building it
downloads Steinberg's ASIO SDK (proprietary licence or GPLv3) and needs
LLVM, so it stays off by default. Verified on Windows with an SSL 2+:
WASAPI output/input switching and buffer 256, ASIO duplex at 128.

Plugins that offer no floating editor (most CLAP plugins on Windows) now
get a host window of SoundCraft's: the GUI is created embedded, parented
to a top-level HWND owned by the app window, sized from get_size, resized
on request_resize (applied by the editor's idle on the main thread, then
set_size), and torn down when the user closes the window. Floating
editors work as before; other platforms still report embedded editors
as unsupported.

Adds a Windows implementation of the editor host window: a top-level HWND
owned by the app's active window (no taskbar button), sized from the
view's rect, resized on IPlugFrame::resizeView, hidden on close and torn
down by the editor link's idle like on macOS. The main thread is the one
Rust names "main", where the app runs its message loop.
Also fixes two Windows-only build problems that kept the VST3 tests from
running there: the fixture's bus flags (the vst3 bindings use i32 enums
with MSVC) and an unused variable in a unix-only test.

When a third-party plugin was removed and re-added (same id, same channel
count) and both session updates reached the audio thread in one drain, sync
saw an unchanged slot, kept the old instance and retired the new one as an
unclaimed leftover. The host-side editor belonged to the new, retired
instance, so reopening it failed with "the plugin is gone", and the old
instance kept running with no editor.
The host only hands over an instance when it no longer tracks the one in
the slot, so an instance waiting for a slot now always replaces it (inserts
and instruments). Debug logs record instance creation and release on the
UI thread.
