Support for multiple albums in one folder

[Thor77]

In some cases, I store music files from different albums in one folder.
It looks like that structure is not really usable with gonic, because it just deletes songs which don't have the same artist as the album associated with the folder they're in (at least that what the behaviour of Scanner.cleanArtists looks like to me).
Additionally gonic will only pick up the album tag of one of the files in the folder, which is also very.. unfortunate for my usecase.

Is there a reason it is implemented this way? Are there plans to change it/would you accept a PR doing that?

hey sorry gonic isn't working out for you.

i made this decision as compromise to make both the subsonic tags and folders APIs do-able. it also solves an issue where an artist has multiple albums with the same name. where the only real way to distinguish them (without looking different combinations of tags) is by folder

could we document the folder structure gonic expects in the README? I've just found this after wondering why gonic doesn't work with my playlist folders :D

ah, that would explain why 90% of my music isn't getting scanned! it's all like this (a lot of mp3s in the same folder):

agree with @raffomania, perhaps documenting what folder structure is expected would be great.

added a section to the readme 👍
