Summary0022340: Improve Multiple Album Artists Albums functionality
DescriptionCurrently Multiple Album Artists Albums functionality is divided only in two tree nodes and they can be improved to improve user experience and functionality.

- Ungrouped Multiple Album Artists (Image 1, 2): which List both Albums Missing Album Artist from all tracks on Album (Image 1) and also real Ungrouped Albums [Compilations] (Image 2) which is essentially confusing to user what needs to be edited

- Multiple Album Artists (Image 3, 4): Shows Almost same information [compilations] (Image 3) And Albums with same name Different Artists and Album Artists (image 4) Which are two Different Albums from Two solo Artists and should be suggested together which is essentially also confusing to user what needs to be edited

- As MM 2027 Support Compilation Tag there is no "Missing Compilation tag" tree node which would suggest Albums that fall under Compilation Criteria

Functionality needs to be reviewed and possibly split into multiple nodes for clarity
Steps To ReproduceYou can use my DB from FTP
- Case 1 (Album not containing Album Artist for all tracks) [image 1]: It should Prefill Album Artist with "Gary Moore" Highlight and PREFIX with ! to let users What Data is Possibly Missing if he selects tracks like properties for Multiple tracks edit [Image 5] I would personally use Separate that into new tree node "Missing Album Artist"
NOTE: Suggestion [Image 4] is Wrongly listed as ungrouped where they should be in two separate suggestions (Artist: Zana, Album: 21 and Artist: Adele, Album: 21) like for Gary Moore album

- Case 2 (Compilation Albums) [image 2, 3]: It should be in Ungrouped Multiple Album Artists because Albums Do not contain two Same Album Artists within albums NOTE: Suggestion [Image 4] is Wrongly listed as ungrouped where they should be in two separate suggestions (Artist: Zana, Album: 21 and Artist: Adele, Album: 21) like Gary Moore album from Case 1

- Case 3: (Missing Compilation Tag): Album in [Image 6/7] is already handled by MM as Compilation and should be listed in Missing Compilation tree node

Case 4: Wrong Detection of Multiple Artist album can happen like in note of Case 1 and should be easily detected Comparing Album, Artist, Album Artists values eg. See if there is repeating value in Artist+Album and group them separately instead of together
