Bug Description

New context menu entry, enabled if a single track is selected:
"Search in Library >"
- Artist
- Album
- Album Artist
- Composer
- Genre
- Grouping
- Location (only the directory without the file name)
- Title
- Year

The menu entry could be placed directly above "Add to Playlist" to follow the order of views.

Upon selection:
1. Switch to the Library view
2. Replace the content of the "Search..." edit field with the composed query (properly quoted)
3. Perform the query

Implementation should be easy, but this feature could be very helpful for library management and preparation! Amarok has some similar functionality built-in.
