The volume keys wanted a partner, and the bass trim could not be one as it
stood: it scaled the sample data as it loaded, so by the time anyone pressed
a key the audio was already sitting in OpenAL buffers and nothing short of a
restart would move it.
So the trim is now a per-zone gain applied in the mix instead. Each buffer's
depth - how much of the low band it occupies - is still worked out once at
load from its playback rate, but the trim itself is read every frame, which
is what lets Home and End move it while sounds are playing. It is the better
form regardless: no rewriting of sample data, and no quantisation on top of
audio that has already been through one gain stage.
Home raises, End lowers, in steps of 0.05, and the setting is written to
bass.cfg beside the exe exactly as the volume writes volume.cfg. Together
with PageUp and PageDown that is the amplifier and the crossover the
cabinets had in hardware and a desktop does not.
Builds clean, runs, and neither knob fires unprompted.

Imports the current Win32 source for the pod-racing game 'Red Planet',
built on the MUNGA engine and its L4 (Win32/DirectX) platform layer:
- MUNGA / MUNGA_L4: cross-platform engine core and Win32 backend
- RP / RP_L4: Red Planet game logic and Win32 application
- DivLoader, Setup1: asset loader and installer project
- lib, MUNGA_L4/openal, MUNGA_L4/sos: third-party audio dependencies
Removed stale Subversion metadata and added .gitignore/.gitattributes.
