A few little gtk tasks that will improve the handling of Denemo by new users.

-Rename "Device Manager" to "Jack Device Manager" please
-Only show the Device Manager if "Jack" is chosen in "Misc"
-Only show the "Internal Synth" tab if Internal Synth is chosen in "Misc".

Its just a visibility thing but many people get confused by the fact that there is more than one place where you can choose audio- backends and drivers.

The advanced version would be to introduce a new column in the "Misc" tab and show the InternalSynth options or JackDeviceManager options there if its active. This gets rid of tabs and makes it clear which options belong to what Audio/Midi Setting.

Or we could have a Audio/MIDI tab. In this tab there will be a dropdown for selecting portaudio, internalsynth, or Jack. Once the selection is changed the tab is updated to reflect. So when the tab is opened internalsynth (default) will be selected in the dropdown and the tab would display the internalsynth settings. If Jack is chosen the tab will contain the JackDeviceManager. The immediate playback option can be added to this tab also.

I can get started on this if this sounds like a good idea.
