Subject: [PATCH] Fix pitch input being overwritten while user is typing
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

edUpdateNotePanel() resets pitchInput.value on every call, but it runs
on every edDraw() — including from requestAnimationFrame during preview,
mouse events, and a 30ms setTimeout(edResize) loop. This caused any
typed characters to be immediately overwritten.

Now skip overwriting INPUT/SELECT values when that element has focus,
so the user can freely type a new pitch like "A4" without it snapping
back to the old value.
