When using Musescore for composing, it can be useful to solo over a looping track to develop a musical idea before writing it out. To do this, musescore needs to be able to play note events received while playback is engaged. The looping mechanism will also need to be changed so that it does not automatically snap to the selected area when the play button is pressed - instead, the user will set the playback range explicitly by pressing the loop button.

_fix #276217 Support-MIDI-IN-while-playback-engaged

Can now play in any part while playback is engaged. PianoTools
reflects both the note the user is pressing and the playback notes
at the same time. Loop range is no longer automatically set when
Play is pressed.

Turning off auto loop range selection on pressing play is now a
configurable option.

Restoring commented out debug line._
