mystran's Bi-quadratic filter

This is not a direct form topology! Essentially it is modified coupled form
(and not too different from classic digital SVF).
Unlike the direct form biquads, this implementation does not blow up under
heavy modulation. However, keep in mind that biquads don't make very musical
filters and should only be for simple filtering tasks.
