Stared chords (e.g. [F*]) are often used when there are two ways of
playing the same chord in the same song. The starred variant is the one
that is different from the "main" variant. This commit marks the starred
chords as important, using \gtab* instead of \gtab.
Notes:
- Debout_Sur_Le_Zinc/La_declaration.sg: the non-stared B7 is marked as
important as well, since it does not follow the standard (barre)
variant.
- Jimi_Hendrix/The_wind_cries_Mary.sg: all the chords are marked as
important, since they are all non-standard.
- Oldelaf_et_Monsieur_D/J_veux_etre_muscle.sg: starred chords were
used for the chorus and non-starred for the verses; it is now the
other way since it is the chorus that use the standard chords and
verses that use alternative chords.
Two songs declared the author "Maxime le Forestier" whereas the others
use "Maxime Le Forestier" with a capital letter on "Le", causing the two
variants to appear in the authors' list.
This reverts commit 494238c679137c31c80cca24faf3400591600e55, with some
changes:
- D+ and D+4 are equivalent, so we use D+.
- Add a comment about the chords' notation.

D+4 denotes a D chord (D/F/A) with an additionnal G and is thus more
commonly written as D4.
You can't use barre notation for this particular D4 since the G string
should be played "alone" (and don't use a barre anyway).
5:X0221X isn't a Amaj7 but a Dm. I'm not sure of the "official"
representation for Leonard Cohen's exact Amaj7 but X0565X sounds good
to me, is quite easy to perform from X5403X (D4) and is only played on
ADGB strings.
I may have over-simplified chorus chords but D and Am sound good. In
fact, I hardly hear the bass string played (maybe a G which would
justify the D4/Am7) but higher notes in the chords are definitely
those of D and Am chords. Since I usually prefer simplicity over
accuracy, D/Am chords for chorus seems a reasonnable choice.
The indication to play only on ADGB strings has been removed since :
- they now can be played for chorus (based on D/Am chords)
- verse chords properly indicate that both E strings should not be played
For this last point, I explicitly marked the C chord as important
since it is often (almost always) played as X32010 (as opposed to
X3201X in this song)
