Description
Currently, the Song Editor and BB Editors have buttons for the following tracks:
* Beat/Bassline Track
* Sample Track
* Automation Track
However, the Song Editor and BB Editor do NOT have a button for
* Instrument Track
From a UI perspective, this is fragmented as Instrument Tracks don't have a dedicated toolbar button leaving the user using two separated areas for adding a new track.
This proposal is to add a quick-access toolbar button to Song Editor and BB Editor to add an Instrument Track.

Research direction
Start by locating the toolbar construction and track-creation actions for the Song Editor and BB Editor; the issue names those two UI entry points but no files. Add a dedicated Instrument Track button in both editors, then verify manually that each button creates an Instrument Track and matches the existing track-button behavior.
