chromecast: Include music metadata

Music related metadata like album, albumartist, tracknumber and
discnumber is currently not added to media playback messages for
Chromecast.

This patch will add the entries if they're specified in the media
metadata.

(cherry picked from commit d4286710deafdb96e81b25e37e6eb106122cc8a0)
