Lowered FluidSynth's default gain, and added config file and command-line
options to specify it. FluidSynth's gain ranges from 0.0 through 10.0 and is probably measured in decibel, but to keep things simple, ScummVM uses settings from 0 through 1000 instead. (Though currently there's no guard against invalid settings.) This is a slightly revised version of the non-GUI part of patch #1336171. svn-id: r20030

use, however.
+Since the default output volume from FluidSynth can be fairly low, ScummVM will
+set the gain by default to get a stronger signal. This can be further adjusted
+using the --midi-gain command-line option, or the "midi_gain" config file

+The setting can take any value from 0 through 1000, with the default being 100.
