Bug Description

Feature request.

Show the estimated time a track in the AutoDJ queue will be played.

Would be good for an internet radio station, as it'll help to see when the music will stop, and the best times to cut in with an ident, etc.

Something like: 'end 12:30 UTC' or otherwise.

The hard part is to consider the the intro cues and the transition time.
But I thing a rough estimation would be already helpful.

Yes, this will require a major refactoring of AutoDJProcessor to calculate all transitions in the playlist before they happen. In the meantime, I think showing no information is better than showing incorrect information.

That refactoring would also allow for showing the precise clock time that a track will play (Bug #1568928).
