High Priority Audio Workers, Was: Resolution to republish MSP as a note

Hello everyone,

As I suspected, the question seems to be more "do we allow anything on the
web to run in a priority thread" rather than "do we allow web workers to
run in a priority thread". Which means we probably should address issues
such as [1] ASAP if we want to advance with audio running in a real-time
thread. I think that implementing such a protection mechanism would also
make it realistic to have audio workers run in priority threads, making it
a better possibility to drop the latency requirement of the JS nodes,
allowing them to play better together with the rest of the graph.
