In comparison with #214, now we have real adblocking and it is multiplatform (it does not require mpris service, which is available only at Linux). Ads are not loaded at all and videos/lyrics are also available even in free accounts. Hifi and master quality is not possible as they are server-sided.
Thanks to this issue, the result is exactly the same if we add the following custom filter to uBlockOrigin in browser:
Also restart behavior fixed when minimize on closed is enabled and added support for mpris:trackid property.
