NSS: fix SSG playback with default Furnace SSG output volume

By default, Furnace uses two different output volumes for ADPCM/FM and SSG.
Since there is no global output volume on hardware, emulate the lower
SSG volume by decreasing all volume macro steps by 1 (it roughly divides
the volume by 2).

Make nsstool warn about this to give users a chance to compose their
module with a full output for ADPCM/FM and SSG, so no tweak is
necessary.
