Describe the bug
When adding an album or other release type that has a secondary release type of 'DJ-mix', Lidarr will not pick this up or add it to the list of available albums the artist/group has.

Efdemin: Carry On, Pretend We’re Not in the Room
Efdemin: Naïf
Fabric 29: Tiefschwarz
Fact Mix 470: Ben Klock

There are instances when a release type of 'Album + Compilation + DJ-mix' will be added to Lidarr (perhaps because Lidarr only pulls the first, secondary release type?):

DJ-Kicks: Forest Swords
Fabric 91: Nina Kraviz

When I spoke of this on Discord, @ta264 suggested this was because SecondaryAlbumType.cs has 'DJ-mix' listed as 'DJ-Mix' (lower-case 'm' on Musicbrainz).

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Make sure DJ-mix is selected in the metadata profile used for the artist/group
Refresh the artist/group in Lidarr
Check to see if any albums on Musicbrainz that have a secondary release type of 'DJ-mix' have been added to the available albums.
