A new release with some improvements to general fault tolerance, cover art coverage and quality.

- We now use a new, higher spec'd MusicBrainz server to make queries faster and reduce the likelihood of timing out
- There's more work on validating batches of results from Acoustid so that we don't pick odd tracks from different releases
- Handle Acoustid results with no release/release group info
- Handle CD stubs from MusicBrainz and use to return release/disc info
- Don't just query MB after Acoustid... also use Acoustid metadata to query Wikipedia and Discogs (improves fault tolerance in case MB is down)
- Handle GZip'd content from Discogs
- Be more lenient when validating Discogs barcodes - ignore hyphens
- For a given MB release, look at the release group and use relationships to Wikipedia to find data
- Don't use 'secondary' art from Discogs
- Only return distinct results in disc/associated_releases
