Add a "Download all" option on the artist page #225

Description

Feature Description

An option on the artist page to download the artist's entire discography in one go – same idea as the existing album and playlist downloads, just one level higher.

Problem Statement

Downloads currently work per song or per album. If an artist has e.g. 6 albums, I have to open each album and start 6 separate downloads, which gets tedious when preparing music for offline listening.

Proposed Solution

A "Download" action on the artist page (e.g. in the "..." menu or next to Play/Shuffle) that queues all of the artist's albums.

Alternatives Considered

"Download All Library" in Storage Settings exists, but it's all-or-nothing – per-artist would be the useful middle ground. This would also complement the playlist download (#78) and the open request for downloading favorites (#209). Multi-selecting albums for batch download could work as well, but a single per-artist action seems simpler and more consistent with the existing UX.

I got a little help from Ai
