Replace pacmd with pactl for Debian 13 compatibility #77

Description

@asp95

In Debian 13 pacmd doesn't work anymore, because now pulseaudio is running over pipewire
but pactl is still working, and the commands are almost the same.

The GUI is working ok
The main command for the EQ is working ok too!

Example: pactl load-module module-ladspa-sink sink_name=ladspa_output.mbeq_1197.mbeq master= plugin=mbeq_1197 label=mbeq control=8.5,11.4,11.4,9.3,7.6,7.2,10.8,11.4,6.2,4.8,1.0,-0.3,-0.3,3.1,4.5

Some lines in the pulseaudio-equalizer 'support script' do not work, even after replacing all instances of 'pacmd' with 'pactl'

I will continue tweaking the script to make a funcional replace by myself, an hopefully do a PR
but, maybe someone else has more experience with this script.

Currently is only one GUI EQ app working (easyeffects), but, a 15 bar EQ almost fill my 1080 monitor lol
Thanks!!
