Fix 'pytheory play' chord name parsing for names containing digits

Chord names like Cmaj7 and G7 were incorrectly treated as tone names
because they contain digits. Now tries chord name lookup first. v0.5.1.

+(rational but accumulating error), and meantone tunes thirds to the
+pure 5/4 ratio (sacrificing fifths).
