Support for cuesheets

[GoogleCodeExporter]

It would be great if beets could tag and update cuesheets, both as independent 
files (*.cue) or embedded within a FLAC.

Not sure if this a duplicate of 109.

Can you elaborate regarding what beets should do with cue sheets? I'm not a 
user of them myself, but I'm imagining, for example, that you might want to 
embed and extract cue sheets from concatenated audio files (much like the 
embedart plugin). Anything else?

109 is a prerequisite for doing interesting things with cue sheets but does not 
encapsulate it.

I might add to this that being able to parse cue files, single file FLAC albums 
could be imported whithout requiring to cuebreakpoints|shnsplit beforehand.

I have ripped my CDs into multitrack FLAC files with embedded cuesheets. I use 
f2k on Windows and deadbeef on linux to play them.
I would like to be able to import these files using beets as separate tracks in 
the database, by leaving file as a single FLAC. At the same time being able to 
update tags in the embedded cuesheet by various means beets allows to update 
tags for separate files.

p.s. I don't see relation to #109 if cuesheet is embedded and we leave it as 
such.
