[FEATURE]: Distinguish MQA (Crap) from MAX (Lossless FLAC) by using "MQA" or "MAX" in directory name, not just "M" #1103

Describe the feature

Thanks to the help of some fellows here I too managed to extract a key with Fiddler to download FLAC-Files with tidal-dl in HighRes lossless quality.

Unfortunately tidal-dl uses "M" for downloads in MQA as well as MAX quality. I noticed, that even the TIDAL-App shows MAX for some album titles, but when you play them in the app MQA is shown (and downloaded). This is something TIDAL and not tidal-dl/Yaronzz is to blame but I would be very happy, if tidal-dl would use "max" and "mqa" instead of a misleading "M" in the directory name, according to the quality which the TIDAL-App shows for the album. If tidal-dl could even get s step further and detect the real quality of the files (maybe by starting to play one file of the album just long enough to detect the real quality) that would be excellent.
