Title:
  Album art from images in the same folder not exposed

Status in Canonical System Image:
  In Progress
Status in Thumbnailer:
  Invalid
Status in mediascanner2 package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  The music app reads the art property from mediascanner2 which, from my
  understanding, uses embedded art if there is any but falls back to
  using the online image provider by sending the album and artist.

  However I, and probably others, have a lot of albums which have the
  cover art in a file within the same directory such as Folder.jpg or
  AlbumArt.jpg etc.

  I propose for this to become the second option, with the online image
  provider as the last fallback.

  In order of preference:
  1) Embedded art
  2) Art within the same folder
  3) Online provided art
