Summary: make "list" messages be real float/symbol/bang messages

Initial Comment: in the past there has been some attempts to make "list" messages behave like "float" (or "symbol" or "bang") messages and vice-versa.

the attached patch adds some additional fallbacks to the method dispatcher in inlet_list(): if an object has no real list-method for an inlet but a float-method and it receives a one-element list holding a float, it will call the float-method. the same for symbols. if there is no list-method and the object receives an empty "list" message, it will call the objects "bang_method"

this should fix bugs #1890931 and #1749885.

Message: I'm going to assign this to Miller, and let him make the call on whether to include it or not rather than include it in Pd-extended.

Message: I am going to assign this to me for now so that I remember to included it in the Pd-extended 0.42 branch, unless anyone has any objections. Then I'll assign it to Miller...
