This change allows remote track metadata comparisons to be done using data from the library, if available, reducing overhead when evaluating Smart Gain, Smart Crossfade, or sample rate changes during track transition. Aside from increasing performance, it also eliminates errors in these evaluations caused by the unavailability of remote metadata that has expired from the remote handler's cache, a problem that has plagued the Qobuz plugin.
