Tools: Test: Audio: Replace the gaussian dither with triangular

The gaussian (or other normal distribution shape) dither impacts
too much 16 bit signals. The triangular probability density
function (TDPF) is a sufficient compromise between added noise energy
and de-correlation of PCM samples.

This change improves for 48 kHz 16 bit audio measurement the THD+N
from -62.6 dB to -73.6 dB.
