[FEATURE]: Track Info button to act as play/pause or be selectable #70

Feature

Add a function option to the Track Info button. In my experience, and using the YTMD app, pressing the info duplicates the player in a browser window starting a second instance. Seems like it would be more functional to have the Track Info button act as play/pause by default. Maybe I'm missing something, but if there were more options for action to select, that's one less button I have to use if I can avoid a separate play/pause button.

Hey! Thank you for the request. I'll consider this request. I initially thought about this action as "read/view only" but then decided instead of just showing the information, to open the track in the browser, so the user can easier share or bookmark the link. But it's a good idea to also add this functionality or at least a option / choice.

I'll set the issue to "On Hold" while the decision-making /label +good +low +hold

Coming from Spotify (and BarRaider's wonderful plugin) and really missed this. It feels natural to have the album art as the play/pause button to me.

Small update: it will be implemented when I upgrade the plugin to YTMDesktop v2.
