Taglib: Use ID3v2Tag() instead of tag() for RIFF::WAV::File
When I tried to compile VLC on my Linux system (version 6.7.3-2-cachyos), I encountered a compilation error.
Build log:

WriteMetaToId3v2 expects a TagLib::ID3v2::Tag instead of TagLib::Tag, hence replaced the usage of the tag() method with ID3v2Tag() when working with RIFF::WAV::File.

Additionally, to resolve the compilation error, the function signatures of insert and removeBlock have been adjusted to align with the base class functions.
