MusicXML: `<sound dacapo="yes"/>` with a `<sound tocoda>` elsewhere plays to the end after the da capo instead of jumping to the coda

A MusicXML score with a To Coda mark (<sound tocoda="coda1"/>) in bar 2, a
D.C. al Coda (<sound dacapo="yes"/>) in bar 3 and the Coda
(<sound coda="coda1"/>) in bar 4 plays

1 2 3 1 2 3 4

After the da capo, playback runs past the To Coda mark and through bar 3
again, and only then reaches the coda. The imported directions are

2: JumpDaCoda, 3: JumpDaCapo, 4: TargetCoda

(In this repro the <sound> elements are direct children of <measure>, so
that they are imported at all; see the separate report about
<direction>-level <sound>.)

Expected Behavior

1 2 3 1 2 4

In MusicXML the "al Coda" is not a separate attribute. "D.C. al Coda" is
expressed as dacapo on the D.C. bar plus tocoda on the bar where the jump
to the coda happens; tocoda applies on the pass after the da capo or dal
segno (https://www.w3.org/2021/06/musicxml40/musicxml-reference/elements/sound/).
Likewise dalsegno + tocoda means "D.S. al Coda", and dacapo/dalsegno

• fine means "al Fine". MuseScore, which wrote the real files we see this
  with, plays them that way. The same score entered in alphaTex with
  \jump DaCapoAlCoda plays 1 2 3 1 2 4.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Save this as repro.musicxml (or unzip the included repro.zip)

  </part>
</score-partwise>

2. Load it with the player enabled and print

   api.tickCache.masterBars.map(m => m.masterBar.index + 1).join(' ')

   or press play and follow the cursor.

3. Observe 1 2 3 1 2 3 4.
