[CATraxx] Useful addition to AudioPlayer templates

[sb]

hello all,

I hope that you are all well.

three years ago I have posted this addition on the old forum. Since the AudioPlayer*.xsl templates have been updated by the author in new release 9.53 of CATraxx, I have updated them, adding the changes to AudioPlayer_Simple.xsl as well, that I had never updated in the past simply because... I missed it

The purpose of these additions is to show the correct release year:

• If track year is different than album year, the track year is shown
• If track year is equal to album year, the album year is shown
• If track year and album year are undefined (empty), it shows "Unknown"

I hope it could be useful.
