[ecasound] 2.7.0 release candidate available

[Kai V. <kve...@ec...>]

Hi,

unless something critical is found, this snapshot will become the
2.7.0 release.

I was tempted to add still a few features (especially adding cop-bypass, 
as proposed by Ashley Gittins), but I run out of time today, so maybe 
better to first get 2.7.0 out.
