Seeing more information during a collection scan

Hi,

The collection scanner progress bar seems to be working relatively well, but
sometimes Amarok seems to initiate a scan for reasons beyond me. For this,
it would be nice to see on the status bar some information on what the
scanner is actually doing. I created a quick patch that displays the artist
that is currently being scanned on the startus bar, e.g. "Scanning Porcupine
Tree". I'm not all that familiar with the Amarok2 source code, so the code
might not do the text change correctly,  but I hope you at least get the
idea. The patch is against the trunk (revision 967862).
