Playlist API simplification

[Zeugma440]

It'd also be nice if you could add a Save function to the PlaylistIO API.

Currently if we want to add or remove paths from a playlist we have to do:

var paths = _playlist.FilePaths;
paths.Remove(0);
paths.Add("Test.mp3");
paths.Add("Test2.mp3");
_playlist.FilePaths = paths;

since it is the setter of FilePaths that causes the changes to be written to the actually playlist file on disk.

It'd be nice to have a more friendly API such as the following:

_playlist.FilePaths.Remove(0);
_playlist.FilePaths.Add("Test.mp3");
_playlist.FilePaths.Add("Test2.mp3");
_playlist.Save();

I mean currently, we can do this:

_playlist.FilePaths.Remove(0);
_playlist.FilePaths.Add("Test.mp3");
_playlist.FilePaths.Add("Test2.mp3");
_playlist.FilePaths = _playlist.FilePaths;

but, as I said before, since the FilePaths setter is what writes the changes, it feels cumbersome doing it this way.

Not sure I wanna do this, as it would require my Playlist class to store and compare values, which introduces too much complexity for the sake of a slightly better API. The tradeoff looks bad to me.

Would you accept to settle for something like :

var paths = _playlist.FilePaths;
paths.Remove(0);
paths.Add("Test.mp3");
paths.Add("Test2.mp3");
_playlist.Save(paths);
