Knob - simple class with a "setKnob" method.
A Knob instance is attached to a Param instance, e.g., param.attach(knob)
Base class is for documentation purposes.

class Param:
"""
The idea of the "Param" class is that some parameter in the GUI may have
several knobs that both control it and reflect the parameter's state, e.g.
a slider, text, and dragging can all change the value of the frequency in
the waveform of this example.
The class allows a cleaner way to update/"feedback" to the other knobs when
one is being changed. Also, this class handles min/max constraints for all
the knobs.
Idea - knob list - in "set" method, knob object is passed as well
- the other knobs in the knob list have a "set" method which gets
called for the others.
