I've found the problem. It turns out that basic drag-n-drop between
libraries was working like it was supposed to *except* the destination
table wasn't notified that its data had changed. So, if you dragged
something into the library, it wouldn't show up until you did something
else that triggered a fireTableChanged method, like minimizing/restoring
the library frame, adding a new patch, deleting a patch, etc. I've fixed
that.

However, there are three remaining items:
1 - Only COPY is supported with drag-n-drop right now. Is there any
opposition to also supporting MOVE?
2 - You can highlight multiple rows and then drag, but only one row gets
transferred. Do we want support for multiple-patch drag-n-drop?
3 - Right now, it appears that dragged patches are always appended to
the bottom of the table. Is there any interest in being able to drop
them between two existing rows?
