Replacing ties

An input tied to an output can be replaced with another input, as long as that input
is of a similar type or plane (e.g., video for video and audio for audio).

An example of replacing an existing tied input with another input

In the following example, video plane 0's input 2 is tied to output 1, 4, and 8. Input
2's signal to outputs 1 is to be replaced by input 7's signal, also on plane 0, and
already tied to outputs 3 and 6.
