The Master stage. Headroom-aware gain into an optional soft limiter, then to
destination. Buses connect their output to master.input.

Headroom is a static gain offset; the limiter is a fast-attack
DynamicsCompressorNode that catches most peaks the headroom can't tame when
heavy FX stack on top of busy mixes. Note it is best-effort, not a true
brick-wall limiter — with a finite attack and no lookahead, transient peaks
above the threshold can still pass, so it does not guarantee a hard ceiling.
