Improve early removable devices handling

Hugo Beauzée-Luyssen requested to merge chouquette/medialibrary:fix_assert_macos into master

This aims at fixing #263 (closed) and other issues related to removable devices handling.

Mostly, this allows a device to be identified based on its previous mountpoints, before the device listers have been started.

In addition, it tries to do a better job when fetching a file based on its MRL, when two MRLs can point to the same media (for instance, smb://1.2.3.4/foo/bar.mkv and smb://hostname/foo/bar.mkv should yield the same result.

TODO:

  • Implement the same handling for folders
  • When run with VLC, the device don't seem to be saved in database
