[JW Lua] Find out FCNote a tab slide in a chord is attached to

[Jari Williamsson]

Thomas,

I've now added NoteID as a property to FCSmartShapeSegment, and also a 
FCNoteEntry:FindNoteID() method.


Best regards,

Jari Williamsson

I figured as a workaround, I might find out using FCSmartShapeSegment::GetEndpointOffsetY or FCSmartShape::CalcLeftEntryMetricPos and ::CalcRightEntryMetricPos, but those seem to always yield a y position of 0.
