Bug Description

I would be nice to have the ability to get the file path of a track in the library. I am imagining a read-only filed (that i can copy paste from) under the track information dialog.

What? The Library used to have a column for Location that gave the full file path. Isn't it still available?

Yea, that feature used to be there but I think I took it out of the
properties dialog in 1.8.0 (because I rewrote it and forgot to add it back
in).

This patch against latest lp:mixxx adds a selectable Tracks File Path display in the track editor dialog.

More changes:
* Use tabs in Track editor like elsewhere in Mixxx
* Track name displayed in window title to save space
* Separates between editable and non-editable fields
* Add some more fields to the track information
* Non-editable fileds now selectable by mouse & keyboard
* Fix button order to follow common standards
* Fix alignments

Limitation (cause i could not figure it out):
* Missing Rating editor. I tried to put the editable Rating field beside the Key field
* Clicking "Accept" still closes the track editor (see lp:913255)
* Some track properties still missing ( e.g. played counter, sample rate...).

Still think it is an improvement compared to the current track editor.

Note:
Patch changes the Shortcut fro "New crate" from CTRL+C to CTRL+STRG+N. Imo it is more logical since the shortcut for "New playlist" is CTRL+N. It can now be used for e.g. copying the Tracks File Path. CTRL+C is a standard system shortcut and Mixxx should not block it.
