Metadata from recording files is not shown in database

[Daniel Schürmann]

If you a load recorded track to a player, you are able to edit the metadata with the context menu.
Theses changes are not shown in the recordings table.

After Mixxx restart they are shown.

The Genre column is always empty even after restart.

This was tested with current main.

FWIW I didn't see the updated tags after restart, not even with "Syncronize library metadata from/to file tags", no matter if recording mp3 or wav.

probably related to how the browse model handles metadata.

If this was some directory which was not added to the library, okay.
But all recordings are in the library, so I don't understand it.
