[sdiy] DIY polyphony handler

I did an autotune routine recently, but there are two main problems with it:
1) You really need a high resolution DAC. For a basic CV, you can get away with fairly limited resolution, especially if the Note CV has modulations added to it, rather than produced directly by the DAC.
2) You need to provide a CV per oscillator, not per voice. Obviously the tuning between one oscillator and another isn’t identical, so the CVs have to be adjusted specifically for each one. That makes for quite a lot of CVs quite rapidly.
Aside from that, it isn’t too difficult. The code is pretty straightforward.
