Change number of loops a sound is set to do while it is playing with `Sound.set_loops(loops)`

This issue came up for me because I wanted a fraction-of-a-second dialogue box sound to loop using play(-1) and then stop at the appropriate time, but the only way to stop it is to call stop() or fadeout(). If I could make it finish just the final loop it was doing then it would sound smoother and consistent, because it wouldn't be cutting off a sound.

This might be called Sound.set_loops(loops)

I don't know much about the lower level stuff of how this would work so maybe it's harder than it looks, but it'd be really useful for me in this situation!

Are you proposing that the loops parameter would be a boolean, where False means to stop at the end of the current loop?

Currently it's an int to allow for a specific number which is probably useful so no. Just that I could set it to 0 while it is playing, so that it will finish the loop it's on and then stop. Maybe this is possible already but I haven't seen anything like it talking on the discord a bit.
