Description

### Enhancement Summary

When importing midi, it would be nice to convert the pitch automation to detune patterns, similar to how it's done in #6297.

#### Justification

Whenever I import midi files, and there's some automation, I like to declutter the project by removing unneded automation duplicates and carry over pitchbends into the note editor - the latter is pretty time-consuming and also not very precise when done by hand, so It'd be very handy if it did that automatically.

Research direction

Start by examining how MIDI import currently handles pitch automation and compare it with the approach requested in issue #6297. Trace how imported pitch bends relate to detune patterns in the note editor; done means MIDI pitch automation is carried over automatically without redundant automation duplicates.
