Describe the feature/enhancement

Add functionality which detects file naming and metadata issues. Possible checks:

  1. Find books that have multiple formats (both mp3 and m4b for a single book/single directory).
  2. Find books where parts are skipped or duplicated(1,2,4,5 or 01,1,2,3,4). This check could run on both file names and track metadata. Chapters could also be checked.
  3. Find possibly mismatched files, using some logic. An example could be a book that has multiple mp3 files, but one or multiple mp3s have a significantly different bitrate.

An exclusion system/option could also be implemented in case of false positives.

The feature could be added to the current “Issues” filter.
