[x3d-public] View3dscene Sound and exit Error

[Michalis Kamburelis]

AD 1 - Also done.

I added a few new fields from X3D 4 to Sound and AudioClip.

And the new fields

- Sound.enabled,
- AudioClip.enabled,
- AudioClip.gain

...are actually honored. That is, their values matter, and updating
them at runtime (e.g. by some animation) also updates the sound
properly. I added demos of them to
https://github.com/castle-engine/demo-models ,

sound/test_enabled.x3dv
sound/audioclip_gain_animate.x3dv

https://github.com/castle-engine/demo-models/blob/master/sound/test_enabled.x3dv
https://github.com/castle-engine/demo-models/blob/master/sound/audioclip_gain_animate.x3dv

Please give Jenkins a few hours from this email, and the view3dscene
version "snapshot" on https://castle-engine.io/view3dscene.php will
contain this.

Regards,
Michalis
