Say I have an instrument with a release time of 2 seconds.  Fluidsynth sounds 
as if it is playing the sound at constant volume for 2 seconds after the end of 
the note, then stopping abruptly.  According to the SoundFont spec, the volume 
should instead decrease linearly to zero.

    This is the time, in absolute timecents, for a 100% change
    in the Volume Envelope value during release phase. For the
    Volume Envelope, the release phase linearly ramps toward
    zero from the current level, causing a constant dB change
    for each time unit. . . .
