monkey-w1n5t0n 9a9b66c5ee feat(midi-devices): canonical external-synth CC templates + dual codegen
Add a durable, committed source of truth for external MIDI synth control:
- synth-midi-cc.json: verified CC maps + provenance/sources (8 devices researched)
- schemas/midi_device.schema.json + schemas/midi_devices/*.json: 6 CC-controllable
  device templates (Moog Sub 37/Sub Phatty, Creamware Pro-12 ASB, Elektron Analog
  Keys, ASM Hydrasynth, Roland JD-800), params keyed {id, cc, label, min, max,
  default, group}.
- codegen/generate-midi-devices.ts (isolated from the mode golden test) emits both
  nisps/midi/generated/midi_devices.hpp (no-heap constexpr, firmware+WASM) and
  manifold/src/midi-devices/generated/ (typed catalogue for the browser).
- codegen/seed-midi-devices.ts: reproducible seed from the research artifact.

Lets a performer pick a device and address its parameters by name (not CC number)
on both the firmware and the Manifold browser engine.

"description": "Describes one external MIDI synth/device as a template of named, CC-addressable parameters. Used by NISPS to let a performer pick a device, see its parameters by name, and select which ones the ML drives via MIDI CC. Codegen (codegen/generate-midi-devices.ts) consumes these to emit a no-heap C++ header (nisps/midi/generated/midi_devices.hpp) and a typed TS module (manifold/src/midi-devices/generated/). Provenance + sources for the CC numbers live in synth-midi-cc.json.",
