ableton link as submodule

[sss-create]

Almost successfully replaced the integrated link code with a submodule.
However, the Nix builds fail. Maybe @mitchmindtree can help out again?

This looks useful:

I did not get it to work with the info from the link..

[yaxu]

Erp sorry, maybe this is related.. #924

(can't see why, just a similar error ..)

Hm, not sure. Everything but Nix works. Nix flakes are not best friends with submodules it seems:
NixOS/nix#4423
NixOS/nix#6633

According to the info in that first link, try adding ?submodules=1 to the nix build invocation at https://github.com/tidalcycles/Tidal/blob/dev/.github/workflows/nix.yml#L41

This drives me crazy 🥲

Local Nix builds work. CI does not.

Finally, this thread held the solution: NixOS/nix#9530 (comment)
The solution is to use: '?submodules=1#default'

@yaxu, this can be merged now, if you'd be so kind and give your go :)
one more thing; we should probably add an info on how to checkout submodules in the readme, such as ableton link does:

Link relies on asio-standalone as a submodule. After checking out the main repositories, those submodules have to be loaded using git submodule update --init --recursive

Thanks for seeing this through!

I added a submodule note to CONTRIBUTING.md
