Improvements when applying or measuring loudness normalization.

  1. Ambisonics support — detects HOA content by perfect-square channel count (First-Order-Ambi=4, Second-Order=9, Third-Order=16, …). Measures only the W channel (ch0) per Peters & Epain (AES 154th 2023), which is as accurate as full loudspeaker rendering at any order - and very fast.

  2. LFE bug fix — ch3 was mapped to LEFT_SURROUND (G=1.41); in Dolby/SMPTE ordering ch3 is LFE, which must be excluded (UNUSED).

  3. Support 7.1 / 7.1.2 / 7.1.4 / 9.1.4 — channels beyond 5.1 were silently ignored. Now mapped per BS.1770-5.

… only W channel) and surround up to 9.1.4 in Dolby/SMPTE channel ordering
