Reloop does not work if current play position is before loop-in point

[jus]

Latest lp:mixxx/1.11 r3497

How to reproduce:
* Play a track
* Set Hotcue 1 early in the track
* At a later part in the track, play a loop/loop-roll
* Exit the loop and continue playback
* Past the loop, set Hotcue 2
* Hit Hotcue 1, then Reloop -> Button lit but playposition does not change
* Hit Hotcue 2, then Reloop -> Works as expected

We had a similar bug back than, see lp:493557

This will be a change in behavior over all previous versions I think. I wonder if anyone relies on the loop not immediately enabling?

I could imagine a use case like setting a loop active as a safety net so the song doesn't go past a certain point (e.g. into a breakdown) while the user is doing something else. I don't want to make it configurable unless we get complaints though (to avoid option overload in the preferences) so we can just wait and see if anyone doesn't like it.

Uum sorry, i did not realize that the behavior was intentional. And because nobody has bothered with the old behavior , so there's no genuine reason to replace it.
