  1. media-sound/qtractor: enable VST2 support

    A lot of MIDI instruments now come in the form of Linux VST plugins, so
    not having VST support enabled seriously limits Qtractor's use cases
    (since the primary use of Qtractor is as a MIDI sequencer) and forces
    users to manually build from source.
    
    VST2 support does not actually require any external deps. When the VST2
    SDK is not found, it just uses the VST API declared in vestige.h which
    comes with qtractor. So just unconditionally enable it, which is what
    upstream does when cmake can't find the SDK.
    
    VST3 support does require the VST3 SDK, which is not in portage, so keep
    that disabled. Fortunately, VST3 is not that popular, at least for Linux
    VST plugins.
