Great.

Here's a patch which implements get_banks for VX-3, VX-6 and VX-8. It 
returns a list of 24 bank names.

For VX-6, I've also implemented get_bank_channels. For bank number n, it 
returns the list of channels belonging to the bank.

No UI and no writing back yet. A channel can belong to any combination 
of banks.
