Summary0016419: Images: Arist, Conductor, Composer images saved to tags should be used
DescriptionIn the Artists [Grid] , Conductor [Grid], and Composer [Grid] views, images are always looked up, even when tracks contain Artist/Conductor/Composer images.

Ideally, MM should use images from tags if they exist.

Note: I changed this from a feature to a bug since this issue is actually kind of confusing to users if they've tagged an issue and the artwork displayed in the grid isn't reflective of what's in the library i.e.:
- a lookup shouldn't occur if the artwork already exists in the library
- an artwork tagging operation should update whatever is in the artwork cache for the grid view

Issue fixed in build 2815. Images of people are searched in track images automatically now.
I did not implement changing of this image after tagging operation - it is not clear, which image user wants to use. Several tracks can contain different images of the same artist, changing one would always change the artist image, but user could have already chosen some other title image for this artist and this would change his/her previous choice. So we use the image from file tag for the first time and later change of this image can be done easily in Artist view.
Also I cannot use artist image in case track has more artists, as it is not known, which artist is on which image then. But I think it will be very rare situation.

It is not always working correctly, it has problem with finding correct track path with file with tagged image, reopening.
