Detailed Description

Standalone settings-chrome navigation for plugin editors.

The standalone host wraps a plugin editor and an Audio/MIDI Settings panel in a tab-bar-less TabPanel (editor = tab 0, "Settings" = tab 1). A plugin editor can add its OWN control — e.g. a gear button — that opens the Settings panel, but ONLY when it is actually hosted in the standalone: inside a DAW the host owns audio + MIDI routing, so there is no settings tab. These helpers give editors a one-call, structure-agnostic way to both detect the chrome and open settings, without reaching into its internals. They are the editor-side mirror of the Settings panel's "Done" button (which switches back to the editor tab).
