... Now restores state again properly and does not cause undocking of other
bars when you restart.
Redoes commit 2d56c8ec3286aa0a4a22e5be9148a2a1e01b8e17 better
... Also checked more error returns from library functions. Detect it when
write fails (maybe because of exhaustion of space) -- don't continue,
pretending all is still well.
Using one non-specific error message in many places, because we're in string
freeze now.
... Problem was a wrongly implemented comparator for wxArray Sort().
The array of points was not really sorted, and results differed with repeated
calls to Sort().
Unlike with std::sort, these comparators are supposed to be trichotomous.
Problem dates to commit 7d5e54e364fcccd630274f2658703543d8c596eb

... doing that only for the user-visible string, seen in the Manage>About menu
of the effect dialog and in the sorted or grouped Effect/Generate/Analyze
menus.
But don't for the string used internally and written into pluginregistry.cfg,
so that compatibility of that file is preserved.

... The part that checks the previously unused statusFlags argument of
audacityAudioCallback can make zero-length labels. I did provoke this into
happening repeatably on macOS using a debug build, zero buffer length in device
preferences, and a busy CPU running other programs, within just two minutes of
recording.
But close zooming in on the label, and listening, revealed nothing obviously
wrong, no click in the playback. So I consider that a false positive.
But the part of the drop-out detection that would make nonzero length
labels, because the other AudioThread is lagging in its writes to disk --
this part remains. Yet I have not yet provoked this into happening.
1) When the program detects this, insert zeroes into the recording to keep the
other good parts synchronized.
2) When recording stops, a message box alerts the user, and a label track is
added showing the lost parts, labelled with consecutive numbers.
3) A menu item visible in alpha builds only is added to Tools, to simulate
recording errors at random times and test the reporting feature.
