FR: Sytrus /2 & x2 buttons for operator frequency multiplier

Any keen Sytrus user knows that operator frequency multiplier values can only be dialled in with the mouse. This is ok—albeit still fiddly—for values like 1.0000, 2.0000, 4.0000, etc because you are only dealing with one digit, but non-whole values like 0.125... it's like painting a house through a keyhole!

I would like to suggest the following additions, both of which are backwards compatible:
  • Two small 'x2' and '/2' buttons to double and half the multiplier value with a single click.
  • Copy value/Paste value/Type in value (via a right-click menu like most parameters in FL)
And, while we are on the subject, type-in-value for the frequency offset parameter would too be awesome.

It's interesting how the frequency multiplier is (1) the one parameter you are guaranteed to want to adjust on every single Sytrus instance, (2) one of the VERY few parameters in FL (next to song tempo) that you usually set to a precise known value, and yet... (3) one of the VERY few parameters in FL that doesn't provide a way to type in a value!

I hope IL would consider this one, cheers! :D
