[Feature Request] Fluidsynth and soundfont support

[Banjo-Oz]

Being able to add a *.sf2 soundfont file to the config folder (and inside *.idos packages) would be fantastic, and give a LOT more options for midi music.

As it stands, is there any way to get "general midi" music on iDOS? I notice setting DOOM to "general midi" gives no music. Is this expected behavior?

I am so used to using a SC-55 soundfont on my PC that DOOM in iDOS sounds so "wrong" now using just soundblaster music (though I have got Gravis Ultrasound music working nicely).

I can confirm MT32 is working - tested with Space Quest 3. (in config make sure mididevice=mt32 and MT32_PCM.ROM and MT32_CONTROL.ROM are present)
