Description

Your idea

When saving a custom drumset file, change the file format name to .drumset

Problem to be solved

When you save a drumset (Edit Drumset - Save As). The file is saved as a .drm file
Maybe that is supposed to mean "drum" but people in open source don't like to see "drm"

Prior art

No response

Additional context

For the sake of compatibility, we should continue to recognize .drm when opening a drumset.

However, when saving a drumset we should always use the new file extension (whatever it may be).
