Add ability to choose or set artist art
There are some artists that share the same name (eg: Eve, Them) and GNOME Music seems to choose an artist art cover without prompting the user or considering other factors available (album or track names).
I can think of these potential solutions:
- the user manually selects the best artist art cover (and avoid having files from both artists);
- GNOME Music could use the album or track name for each file (if available) to disambiguate who its true artist is (and thus which art cover to select);
- the user could add some uniquely identifying metadata to the artist name (maybe their audiodb id?), but this could create problems for other programs;
- GNOME Music could just not show any art cover in these cases
Steps to reproduce
- Change a song file's artist tag to "Eve"
- Launch GNOME Music
- Go to the Artists tab
- The artist art cover will be Eve, but there is also another artist named Eve available.
