Description

### Enhancement Summary

It was proposed in this comment to make the "Master volume" fader use a dB scale instead of a linear one: https://github.com/LMMS/lmms/pull/7636#issuecomment-2672583420

Please note that this feature might be related to https://github.com/LMMS/lmms/issues/7729 depending on which solution is chosen for that issue.

@bratpeki, feel free to adjust this issues description with anything that might be missing!

### Implementation Details / Mockup

Once https://github.com/LMMS/lmms/pull/7636 is merged the 'Fader' class should hopefully give some ideas on how to accomplish this.
