Add options to rename and move SMB files

Since there is no way to communicate any playback data from heresphere to pc (like number of plays, tags, star rating, etc), filepath and filename manipulation is the only ways to communicate. I think it would be useful to be able to rename files and move them between folders so you can do something with these files on pc later. For example I might want to move certain files into own folder, or mark certain files for something (even for deletion, since deletion over SMB seems to be problematic).

Thanks.

I'll consider it if I have time. My main concern is that since SMB file deletion seems to be problematic at times, moving and renaming files could also be just as problematic. I'm not sure how to handle exceptions like if there's not enough disk space, or if the drive gets disconnected mid transfer. Proper file management is difficult, and it's not my area of expertise.

Yeah moving files would likely have the same problems as deletion. Renaming though should work I think, and probably easier to implement.

Thanks for considering it.
