nudge / fine adjust a loop

[allen bina]

It would be nice to be able to adjust a loop that is already set. Sometimes I miss the exact points and it would be useful to have a knob to get the perfect entrance / exit points.

Once we have waveform zoom and proper beat detection (VAMP) it should be much more easy to set exact loops so that the desired feature will hopefully be unnecessary.

Example from CDJ-200 -- to set a loop in point, you hold down Loop-IN and then move the jog wheel to fine adjust. Same for loop out. It doesn't really fit us but it's useful to think about.

I think loop-move buttons are standard in other software too. I filed Bug #1294281 for this.

the same nudging procedure should be used for adjusting beatgrids on a fine scale. It would be nice to have a consistent ui.

This was implemented in https://github.com/mixxxdj/mixxx/pull/1187

A jog wheel is not necessarily needed. When a loop is active, the user can hold loop_in/loop_out while moving the playhead in any manner (letting the deck play, click and drag with mouse, beatjump, jog wheel) to finely adjust the loop in/out point. When quantize is on, it snaps to the beat.
