A command-line DSSI host.

$ cli-dssi-host <dssi_plugin.so>[:<label>]
[-p [<bank>:]<preset>] (use -p -1 for default port values;
-p -2 for random values; omit -p to read port values from stdin)
[-l <length>] (in seconds, between note-on and note-off; default is 1s)
[-r <release_tail>] (in seconds: amount of data to allow after note-off;
default waits until silence (up to a maximum of 15s))
[-f <output_file.wav>] (default == "output.wav")
[-c <no_channels>] (default == 1; use -c -1 to use plugin's channel count)
[-n <midi_note_no>] (default == 60)
[-v <midi_velocity>] (default == 127)
[-d <project_directory>]
[-k <configure_key>=<value>] ...
[-b] (clip out-of-bounds values, including Inf and NaN, to within bounds
(calls exit()) if -b is omitted)
cli-dssi-host writes a short .wav file with audio generated by sending 1 note-on and then 1 note-off to a DSSI plugin. You can specify the length and the MIDI note and velocity. Things like presets, labels within dlls, multiple channels and configure key-value pairs seem to work!
$ cli-dssi-host simple.so -p -1
(which uses default values for all control-in ports);
$ cli-dssi-host less_trivial_synth.so < lts.prs
(where lts.prs is a text file containing one argument for each control-in port);
$ cli-dssi-host xsynth-dssi.so -p 0:3
(which loads program (aka preset) 3 in bank 0);
$ cli-dssi-host trivial_sampler.so:stereo_sampler -p -1 -k load=snare.wav -c -1
(where load=snare.wav is a configure key-value pair, and -c -1 tells the program to write as many channels as the stereo_sampler plugin has audio outputs).
The -l arg specifies length in seconds between note-on and note-off (or nearly - would have to set the note-off.time.tick exactly for that). But it's not ideal, since we still have to record the release tail. Maybe an extra arg to specify absolute length.
The function which calculates when the release tail is finished could probably be improved - e.g. by stopping at a zero-crossing, as well as waiting for a low-power frame.
