Bug/Limitation: maximum of 128 notes per pattern

[Lerpwave]

Hi, first of all thanks for this port of Bosca Ceoil!

Description:
There is a maximum of 128 notes per pattern

Proposed changes:
No limit or higher limit, or maybe documenting the limitation somewhere as it is unexpected.

Version:
I used the last stable linux version on github (3.1.2).

How to reproduce:
I created a new project and filled the grid with notes.

Hi there! Yes, this is an intentional limitation from the original version of Bosca Ceoil. This is something we can reconsider in version 4.0, because adjusting this limit would break compatibility. For Bosca itself this is arbitrary, as there is no inherent technical limitation that makes us limit the number of notes. Although when exporting to 3rd party formats higher limits may present a problem. I'd have to check if it's safe to increase or lift it completely.

Out of curiosity, was that a limitation you ran into naturally or were you just testing things? I think, outside of drum parts perhaps, it would be rather rare that you'd need so many individual notes in a singular pattern. If you genuinely do need that many, what would be a reasonable new limit in your opinion?

PS. This limitation is actually mentioned in the online documentation here:

I don't quite remember how, I probably was testing some unusual technique like putting a lot of notes and changing a scale and seeing what is left, but doing this I saw the limit.
There's clearly not many situations where this would happen, this may happen with these settings (image below) and more than 4 notes on each vertical grid which is rare I guess (these are settings that I used in my music):

Sorry, I didn't think to check the documentation!

Probably 256 would be more than enough but I don't know if it's worth the trouble!
