Would be cool if this program would support Internet Radio (.m3u, .pls and etc)

For now, if mpd plays internet radio mpd-discord-rpc crashes with this error:

Internet Radio usually doesn't have any info about $duration of the song. I think album cover will not work too, because MPD doesn't provide any information about $album or $artist (at least i don't see them in ncmpcpp) and $title in MPD consist of two parts: $artist-$title provided by Internet Radio

@JakeStanger commented on GitHub (Oct 10, 2023):

Hey, I've just written a fix for the crash, which I'll merge in a few mins. Album art will already gracefully fall back if nothing can be found so that shouldn't be a problem.

I won't be able to do anything smart to try and interpret the album/artist if that's not set in the correct fields. I think that's down to the radio provider the format they pick, and it would likely cause all sorts of collisions (if any artist or song title has a - in it for example, that would make parsing the above case nigh impossible).

Getting a new release out is still pending an upstream release of the `discord-presence`` crate, so for now you'll need to build from source or use the AUR package.
