Classical Extras 2.0.4 (for release)

This is the version intended for the next official release. It is the same as the beta version with the following extra functions and updated readme:
Added an option to attempt to get works and movement info from title if there are no work relationships (requires title in form "work: movement"). If Muso-specific genre processing is selected (or XML reference file is provided including classical composers) and there is no composer (because of a lack of work relationship) then the plugin will check the listed artist against the reference list of classical composers and, if there is a match, will populate the composer metadata and set the genre to classical.

Release details:
Changed layout of tabs - the order is now Artists, Works, Genres and Tag-mapping. The help tab has been much reduced as it was of limited assistance and difficult to maintain. There is a lot of context-sensitive help and the readme file contains the latest full documentation.
Added a check-box on the genres tab to enable/disable genre filtering (previously the genre names would have to be blank to eliminate filtering and in any case this was buggy).
A general code tidy-up has led to significant performance enhancements. The only significant slowing factor is now the unavoidable MusicBrainz 1 look-up per second constraint (for looking up works).
A number of changes have been made to the way in which "extended" metadata is supplied - i.e. where title metatdata is combined with the "canonical" MusicBrainz work names. Hopefully the result is a more consistent and helpful presentation. Also some minor changes to the way in which text is eliminated to arrive at part names, including a new option on the "advanced" tab to "Allow blank part names for arrangements and part recordings, if an arrangement/partial label is provided" (see documentation under the advanced tab section for more details). Plus bug fixes.

Classical Extras 2.0.1

Adds a variable "composer_lastnames" for use in tag mapping. (NB use _cwp_composer_lastnames in tagger scripts, or _cea_composer_lastnames if work parts section is not run).
Bug fix for prepositions logic.
