LMMS
Expose sample rate in settings dialog
Adds basic ability to manually set the preferred sample rate used by the audio backend. Basic and preferred because the list box is not actually populated based on the backend's report yet.
Fixes https://github.com/LMMS/lmms/issues/4607
There are specific configuration widgets for each backend - would it be better to put the configuration option in those, where it can be adapted to each specific backend (e.g. omitted if the backend doesn't support a choice of sample rate, or be populated with the available rates)?

My motivation to not put it in there was the fact that it does not actually set the sample rate of the audio backend directly but rather it's a preferred setting for the lmms engine which then TRIES to preferably open the device using the specified frequency IF possible. I intend this PR only as a quick workaround until the audio backend mess actually gets sorted out. (Thinking of the misterious "HQ mode" option and the like) Putting it in the backed-specific widget would suggest that the device itself will be opened with the specified setting, but for that to actually happen we first need to have the ability to query the supported settings.
