Rename "Playlists" to "Libraries" #142

Now you would think this is absolutely stupid at first, but let me explain why;

For people coming from plug.dj, it was very confusing at first because they had to redefine what a playlist what in the context of dubtrack.fm. This confusion could had been alleviated if there is a clear definition between your lists, and what you want to play.

When you add songs from your playlists into your playlist for the room; See how janky that sentence is? Horrible explanation for something that is effectively adding songs from your music library into your playlist. Everybody can already piecemeal their playlist from their libraries or search results, which becomes the songs that are played when you're up for your turn.

This also better explains the system for newbies; New users don't need a library of music to play, but they can choose to have a library for things they want to queue into their playlist again and again.

You add songs from your playlists to your que for the room.

I think this makes sense and shouldn't change.

The reason why it doesn't appear to make sense to me is because everything is a playlist, when you're only adding to one playlist.

There's no real problem, this is more a wishlist sort of thing, but I still think a whole new category for your "playlists" specifically would benefit newbies and further define the separation of their stuff from your stuff. I'll just resolve it on my end with a pseudoclass and call it a day. :)
