Return sample playback volume to decibels

If I remember correctly, the volume slider for sample playback in the sample panel was in decibels before the update. Now is a percentage. It would be great to have it back in decibels. It is useful to match the sample playback loudness to the level you use for gain staging.

I found it strange that this slider went back to percentages, after the old migration of most values to proper units, so I thought that this regression might be justified. It's not a big deal. It was just convenient to set the slider to, say, -18 dB and listen to the sample together with the rest of the arrangement with the proper volume.
