Bug#625536: audacity: remove artificial limits

[Jamie Heilman]

tags 625536 + patch
thanks

Here's a patch to remove the sample rate limit on imported raw, and
add 192k and 384k to the list of standard sample rates (as 192k is now
pretty common even in on-board consumer gear, and 384k isn't even all
that rare).  I've run with this patch for a while, I haven't
experienced any adverse side effects.  Seeing as the upstream bug is a
lowly P4, I don't hold out much hope for an official fix anytime soon,
and in the interim, having to retype my sample rate 3 times for every
raw import is just needless pain.  Also note the upstream mention of
the spectrogram limit seems to overlook that the 100kHz limit there
isn't a reference to the sampling rate (atleast, not directly, its
related to the sampling rate divided by two I suppose) but rather the
highest frequency visually displayable.  Limitations imposed there are
arguably less of a big deal given the app's intended use with audio.
