Audio files usually have 2 different kinds of artists:
Album Artist, or the person/group that the containing album was released under
Song Artist, otherwise known as "Performers". This gives credit to artists to helped work on an individual song.
The problem
In #106, we added support for returning multiple artists from a scanned files, but we didn't properly distinguish between Album Artist and Performer. Instead, they're mashed together and all listed as Album artists.
Affected area

Steps to reproduce
1. Set up a files core (either local files or OneDrive, anything that uses AudioMetadataScanner)
2. Make sure to add audio files where songs have different song artists than the album artist
3. Open the app and let it scan the files
4. Observe the bug as the artist list loads. Performers show as album artists.
Visual repro steps
Visually, the bug manifests as this:
Expected behavior
Song artists should only exist on tracks, not as individual artists who have released entire albums.
