feat(plugin): Title Cleaner OST

[nrth3rnlb]

This pull request introduces a new "Title Cleaner OST" plugin for MusicBrainz Picard, designed to remove soundtrack-related information from album titles using customizable regular expressions. It provides a user interface for configuring regex patterns, whitelists, and release type filters, along with a live test feature to preview changes. The changes include both the plugin's Python implementation and its Qt-based configuration UI.

Key changes:

New Plugin Implementation:

• Adds plugins/title_cleaner_ost/__init__.py, implementing the "Title Cleaner OST" plugin with:
  • Customizable regex pattern for removing OST indicators from album titles.
  • Whitelist support to exclude specific album titles from processing.
  • Configurable application based on release type (e.g., only soundtracks or all releases).
  • User interface logic for regex validation, test preview, and live updates.
  • Integration with Picard's options system and album metadata processing.

User Interface for Plugin Configuration:

• Adds plugins/title_cleaner_ost/title_cleaner_ost_config.ui, providing a Qt Designer-based configuration dialog with:
  • Input fields for regex pattern and whitelist.
  • Checkbox controls for selecting applicable release types.
  • Test area to preview the effect of settings on sample album titles.
  • Buttons for resetting regex to default and toggling regex explanation/help.
  • Live update option for instant test feedback.

@phw Here is a new PR as well; the old one can no longer be reopened.

Does this include changes to address all comments made on the previous PR?

I have checked and this does NOT include the comments I made on the previous PR #402. I was unhappy enough that having donated my time to try to help @nrth3rnlb improve his new plugin that he then voided that effort by closing the PR, but I consider it a further sign of disrespect that a new PR has been opened without those review comments having been dealt with.

I do not intend to spend my time repeating the same comments, but I recommend that this PR is NOT accepted until the previous review comments on the other PR are taken note of.

I have no idea what your bloody problem is. You seem to think that with your 50 years of programming experience, you’re something special. Your self-promotion just bores me. The fact is, you’ll be back on my block list just as quickly as I removed you from it at lunchtime today. By the way, you’re the only person on it.

I hope I never hear from you again.
