Host 0x17: Query which thread is currently active
...
Quite useful for threading and memory safety.

Host 0x2D/0x2E/0x2F: Controllable crash/memory corruption via p_ptr

Host 0x1F/0x31: Query current input/output speaker arrangement
...
Seems to be completely unsupported in VST 2.4 hosts and all prior hosts seem to just return the exact data we output from VST_EFFECT_OPCODE_GET_SPEAKER_ARRANGEMENT.

Host 0x15/0x16: Query which vst_effect_t is attached to an input/output stream
...
Basically unsupported in almost all hosts so not very useful for optimization purposes.

Host 0x13/0x14: Current input/output sample latency

Host 0x11/0x12: Current effect sample rate and block size
...
Some hosts can randomly "forget" to send these updates to the effect and that's why we can ask the host for them. Most modern ones though do properly handle all of this.

Host 0x27: Query current host language
...
Seems to use a custom format instead of something like ISO 639 which predates VST 2.x by quite a long time. Reinventing the wheel goes back a long time it seems.

Host 0x29: Retrieves the path of the currently loaded effect
...
Unsure what this does with container plug-ins. Does it return the container file?

Host 0x30: Some kind of path query related programs and banks

Mostly just crashes hosts but in rare cases actually works to retrieve a path to something.

Host 0x2A: Plug-in requests a full refresh of information
...
A plug-in may call this if they believe important information has changed such as the number of parameters. This seems to work together with VST_HOST_OPCODE_IO_MODIFIED.

Host 0x2B/0x2C: Intended behavior appears to be locking/unlocking
...
These calls seem to prevent compatible hosts from emitting parameter changes entirely. This is like a file lock where it prevents other processes from modifying things they shouldn't.

Initial work towards event handling support ( #3 )
...
The VST 2.x API seems to support some sort of event handling functionality used to implement MIDI (#2 ) and External Processing (#5 ). The vst_event_t structure is currently unclear.

Add "editFile" to vst_host_supports_t

This one looked like a function lookup for a LoadLibrary call. Turns out it's an actual support query!

Host 0x1E: Request a resize of the window containing our custom editor
