Thanks for the feedback, Reinhold.
You're right, I wasn't quite sure about this either, since the name of the
function suggests to only work for SF2. But since it is only a quick'n dirty
check anyway, I think it should also handle DLS files. After all, the main
purpose of this function seems to be trying to find out whether fluidsynth
might be able to handle that file...
So, unless somebody objects, I'll make fluid_is_soundfont() DLS aware for the
stable 2.1.0 .
