Implement release repair as an extension #86

The following idea seems feasible and would probably improve overall user share quality if failed releases were automatically repaired by:

allowing AirDC++ to search for and download failed files on SFV check, either opting to download alternate versions of the failed file or replacing the failed file altogether, depending on user preference.

This won't be added in the application itself as it can be implemented with an extension. There is currently no API listener for the failed files but that can be easily added. Let me know if someone is planning to write an extension for this.
