This is intended to fix two issues:
- In REAPER, setting automation recording to 'Latch', recording some
automation, saving and reloading the project, then starting playback causes
automation data to be overwritten. This appears to be because REAPER
interprets parameter change messages sent during state restoration as
originating from the user.
- In Ableton Live, automation lanes are sometimes disabled when loading
projects. This also seems to be because the setStateInformation call
may send parameter change messages back to the host.
According to the docs for kAudioUnitProperty_ClassInfo, the host is
required to notify all parameter listeners that the parameter values may
have changed, implying that the plugin need not send its own parameter
change notifications during state restoration.
