Subject: [PATCH] feat: implement procedural drum synthesis and techno patterns
 based on research

- Refined all TR-808 and TR-909 synthesis models (Kick, Snare, Hi-Hats, Clap, Cowbell) to strictly follow the DSP research specifications.
- Implemented authentic 15-bit LFSR noise for 909 Snappy component.
- Updated pitch drift to use cent-based logarithmic formula (+/- 1-2 cents).
- Added master saturation with soft-clipping hyperbolic tangent curve.
- Implemented 'Techno Randomization' feature in instrument store and UI.
- Ensured proper node disposal and Web Audio API safety (positive ramp guards).
- Synchronized initial audio engine state with UI parameters.
