Support "album artist" and "artist sort" in TagLib::Tag interface?

[Ben K]

 Hey,

I'd be happy to help with implementation of this feature. I've been looking
at how to incorporate AlbumArtist into Amarok 2.0 and this TagLib
functionality would be very useful.

I'm reasonably experienced with coding in C and C#, having used them for uni
and work respectively. I am getting more familiar with C++ as I explore
Amarok2. Let me know how I can help TagLib.
