VBAN Plug 0.2.0 - Eight-channel streams

VBAN Plug 0.2.0 adds up to eight channels in a single VBAN stream.

• TX selects 1–8 stream channels, with PCM16 or PCM24.
• Both VST3s expose eight input and output connections by default and accept host layouts from mono through eight channels.
• Mono has one horizontal meter; stereo has L/R; multichannel uses thin numbered bars.
• RX detects the incoming channel count and meters all received channels.
• Both editors show the current host I/O count. Configure the track/bus or plug-in routing pins in your host for eight channels to use every connection.
• TX still preserves all host audio unchanged. Existing mono/stereo stream settings remain compatible.

Close the audio host before updating, then rescan the plug-ins. Use the installer or copy both complete VST3 bundles from the portable ZIP to C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3.

The installer, portable ZIP, source ZIP (including the exact JUCE sources), and SHA256 checksums are attached.

Validation: real UDP tests for every channel count in PCM16/24, channel ordering and packet limits, mono mixing and silent padding, float/double pass-through, compiled VST3 bus negotiation and editor creation, and isolated installer/reinstall/uninstall checks. Additional DAW testing is welcome.

Windows 10/11 x64. This test release is unsigned. Sender and receiver must use the same nominal sample rate. Some audio hosts support only mono/stereo inserts.
