0.17 - Improved scan speed + fixes

I discovered a pretty nasty bug that required me to change how the database gets accessed.  The performance should be the same but doing things while scanning should be a bit more stable now.  I also made some minor changes to the album art stuff to make it more efficient

Changelog:
0.17: (05/22/11)
-Improved file scan speed
-Scan notification updates to show # of tracks found while scanning
-Album art autodownloader will try another image if the first attempt fails
-If album art download cannot find anything or is turned off, the track's folder
    is scanned for images to use for album art
-The local cache is checked for album art before attempting to auto download

fixes:
-Fixed issues with the database being locked causing a crash while scanning
-Fixed issue where an album download timeout/error causes the now playing ui
    to stop updating for awhile

3.4.17 and 3.5 Beta 1 Released

3.4.14

Google really messed with alarms and timers for android 14, so 3.4.14 should fix the sleep timer.  You will notice an alarm will show up in your alarms menu when the sleep timer is turned on.  This is the only way to actually get the sleep timer to reliably stop playback on time when your screen is off / phone locked. 3.4.14 (2024-05-17): Sleep timer should now be more reliable on android 14+ 3.4.13 (2024-04-29) Fixed metadata view incorrect sizing in now playing layout 1 3.4.12 (2024-04-23) Updated translations Fixed issues with left and right metadata alignment when no album art Multi artist/genre/composers should now be separated by a comma and space throughout GMMP 3.4.11 (2024-04-16) Added ability to choose whether to crop album art to 1:1 aspect ratio in now playing layout 2 (customize -> album art -> crop to fit) Fixed now playing tab 1:1 aspect ratio album art getting cropped Album art preview pop up should no longer crop art 3.4.10 (2024-03-31) Fixed auto bookma...
