back in MIDI time

Oops, it's Timidity that skips initial rests — opening the MIDI in  
Rosegarden shows they're intact even with the patch as is, because there  
are non-note MIDI events (time, tempo, text, instrument) at the rest.

No — the way to express this is by setting the time signature after the  
pickup. This would work for initial grace notes too. It might be possible  
to make Time_signature_performer (or Midi_walker?) repeat the time  
signature where needed, but I think that's a different issue.
