Add integration from Strudel patterns and canvas into hydra

 the official Hydra editor.
 
+##### `P()` function
+The `P()` function allows you to use strudel mini-patterns in Hydra.
+It uses the same timing information as Strudel itself, so it will be synchronized with the audio.
+
+**Note**: It will only work, if strudel is already initialized, because that will load the modules we need.
+**Note**: You can not use any strudel functions on the pattern.
+**Note**: Currently we do not have mini-highlighting for Hydra panes.
+
+##### `useStrudelCanvas(source)`
+
+Will initialise the given source (`s0`, `s1`, etc) to use the strudel canvas as a source.
+Will also hide the strudel canvas, so it will not overlap.
+
+**Note**: Strudel will have to be initialized, otherwise this will not work.

 ##### `fft()` function
 
 The `fft()` function is a special function that allows you to get the FFT data
