Search for samples in Project file's local directory #2982

It's hard tot use samples when cooperating wth other users, when for some reason I don't want to mess up with the other person's "lmms/samples" directory contents.

I'd love to be albe to define sample paths that are local to the MMP/MMPZ file's dir.

For example my project paths is

/my/very/long/path/

But my partner has the same dir synced in:

/his/very/long/path/t

If we want to store the samples along with the project file (and we do) we need to make some tricky symlinks kung-fu to cheat LMMS that we both use the same path for our projects.

Blender for example defines a character sequence "//" or "" that meas the project file local dir.

This way One can ferenece a sample locally:

//sample1.flac

Instead of

/some/long/dir/sample1.flac
