Create settings.md 

Everything* from `settings.cpp` is in here! I think.

Some things are present but commented out because I didn't see them in 0.6pre5 on Win10.

# settings
settings are saved when clicking the **OK** button at the bottom of the dialog.
# General
- **Workspace layout**
- **Import**: reads a .ini layout file.
- **Export**: writes current layout to a .ini file.
- **Reset**: resets layout to default.
- **Initial system**: the system of chips loaded on starting Furnace.
- **Current system**: sets current chips as default.
- **Randomize**: set default to a random system.
- this will not choose a random system at each start.
- **Reset to defaults**: sets default to "Sega Genesis/Mega Drive".
- **Name**: name for the default system. may be set to any text.
- system configuration: same as in the [chip manager](../8-advanced/chip-manager.md) and [mixer](../8-advanced/mixer.md).
- **Play intro on start-up:**
- **No**: skips intro entirely.
- **Short**: shows silent title screen briefly.
- **Full (short when loading song)**: shows animated musical intro unless started with a song (command line, double-clicking a .fur file, etc.)
- **Full (always)**: always shows animated musical intro.
- **Double-click time (seconds)**: maximum time between mouse clicks to recognize them as a double-click.
- **Toggle channel solo on:** select which interactions with a channel header will toggle solo for that channel.
- **Push value when overwriting instead of clearing it**: in the order list and pattern editors, typing into an already-filled value will shift digits instead of starting fresh.
- if off: moving the cursor onto the value `A5` and typing a "B" results in `0B`.
- if on: with the cursor on the value `A5` and typing a "B" results in `5B`.
- **Move cursor up on backspace-delete**
- **Move cursor by edit step on delete**
<!--
- **Insert pushes entire channel row**
- **Pull delete affects entire channel row**
-->
- **Change current instrument when changing instrument column (absorb)**
- **Delete effect value when deleting effect**
- **Change order when scrolling outside of pattern bounds**:
- if off, the pattern edit cursor will stay locked within the current order.
- if on, moving the cursor past the edge of the previous or next order will move to that order.
- **Move cursor by edit step on insert (push)**
- **Move cursor to end of clipboard content when pasting**
- **Don't scroll when moving cursor**
- **Double click selects entire column**
- **Allow docking editors**
- **Don't raise pattern editor on click**
- **Focus pattern editor when selecting instrument**
- **Restart song when changing chip properties**
- **Use system file picker**: use native OS file dialog instead of Furnace's.
- **Only allow window movement when clicking on title bar**
- **Enable event delay**
- may cause issues with high-polling-rate mice when previewing notes.
- **Power-saving mode**
- saves power by lowering the frame rate to 2fps when idle.
- may cause issues under Mesa drivers!
<!--
- **Late render clear**
- calls `rend->clear()` after `rend->present()`. might reduce UI latency by one frame in some drivers.
-->
- **Disable threaded input (restart after changing!)**
- threaded input processes key presses for note preview on a separate thread (on supported platforms), which reduces latency.
- however, crashes have been reported when threaded input is on. enable this option if that is the case.
- **Remember window position**
- remembers the window's last position on start-up.
- **New instruments are blank**
- **Save unused patterns**
- **Compress when saving**
- use zlib to compress saved songs.
<!--
- **Use new pattern format when saving**
- use a packed format which saves space when saving songs.
- disable if you need compatibility with older Furnace and/or tools which do not support this format.
-->
- **Cursor follows current order when moving it**
- applies when playback is stopped.
- **Audio export loop/fade out time:**
- **Set to these values on start-up:**
- **Loops**: number of additional times to play through `0Bxx` song loop.
- **Fade out (seconds)**: length of fade out after final loop.
- **Remember last values**
- **Note preview behavior:**
- **Never**
- **When cursor is in Note column**
- **When cursor is in Note column or not in edit mode**
- **Always**
- **Wrap pattern cursor horizontally:**
- **No**
- **Yes**
- **Yes, and move to next/prev row**
- **Wrap pattern cursor vertically:**
- **No**
- **Yes**
- **Yes, and move to next/prev pattern**
- **Cursor movement keys behavior:**
- **Move by one**
- **Move by Edit Step**
- **Effect input cursor behavior:**
- **Move down**
- **Move to effect value (otherwise move down)**
- **Move to effect value/next effect and wrap around**
- **Allow dragging selection:**
- **No**
- **Yes**
- **Yes (while holding Ctrl only)**
# Audio/MIDI
<!--
- **Backend** {{document this}}
-->
- **Device**: audio device for playback.
- **Sample rate**
<!--
- **Outputs**: {{document this}}
-->
- **Channels**: number of output channels to use.
- **Buffer size**: size of buffer in both samples and milliseconds.
- **Quality**: selects quality of resampling. low quality reduces CPU load.
- **Metronome volume**
- **Low-latency mode (experimental!)**: reduces latency by running the engine faster than the tick rate. useful for live playback/jam mode.
- _warning:_ experimental! may produce glitches. only enable if your buffer size is small (10ms or less).
- **Force mono audio**
- **Software clipping**: clips output to nominal range (-1.0 to 1.0) before passing it to the sound device.
- this avoids activating Windows' built-in limiter.
- **want:** requested audio configuration.
- **got:** actual audio configuration returned by audio backend.
