Group Artists, Composers, Album artists by external Ids

[quickmic 1703]

Would be nice if items (same category) would be merged by external Ids.

e.g. I've 2 times the exact same composer with the same external Ids -> Discogs, MusicBrainz, TheAudioDb

The genre is different and the title (artist name) is lower case and "normal" in the other. But this could be merged anyway. The Ids are the same, and so is the composer.

We already do this for movies and series. Artists are a little tricky, because sometimes you can have the same artist named differently and this is intentional.
