When using LADSPA plugins, the plugins from media-plugins/ladspa-cmt do not
have categories assigned to them, which makes life inconvenient for users with
a lot of plugins installed.

Fortunately, the fix is trivial: download the file
http://plugin.org.uk/lrdf/cmt.rdf
and install it in /usr/share/ladspa/rdf/



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Start any application that uses LADSPA plugins and supports categorization,
such as Ardour. Browse the available plugins (how to do this depends on the
specific app UI).  Look for a known CMT plugin, such as "Amplifier (Mono)". 


Actual Results:  
"Amplifier (Mono)" has no category. (In Ardour, the "Type" column says
"Unknown".)


Expected Results:  
After installing the rdf file, the "Amplifier (Mono)" plugin should be in the
Amplifiers category.  (In Ardour, the "Type" column should say "Amplifiers".)

That will break the checksums anytime someone changes the file because it's
unversioned; a.k.a. really sucks.
