Noticed a few things while looking at some songs shared at https://www.irealb.com/forums/showthread.php?20562-AlexStewart-charts&p=50773#post50773

  1. The protocol is 'irealb', not 'irealbook' ( although irealbook is still supported)
  2. It looks like there's now support for a tempo specification apart from the style, tempo goes at the front of the song and style goes at the end?
  3. Songs can be grouped together; at a glance it looks like this is done by separating them with === (with subsequent songs not using the irealb:// URL prefix)

Would be nice to support these things.

According to https://metacpan.org/pod/Data::iRealPro irealb is a separate/proprietary format whereas irealbook is the open/documented one.
