Changes artwork lookup from last.fm to fanart.tv
last.fm changed their API so artwork can no longer be pulled.
The smallest images from fanart.tv are 200x200px. The full image size for Album pages are 200x200px so both thumb and full size are the same image source from fanart.tv. The "full size" image is only downloaded when you click on the album detail link.
When the album cache is too old, Headphones will do an artwork lookup. Since most people's cache is probably expired, we're hammering the last.fm API with artwork requests that will never work. This change will also hopefully stop that and prevent us from triggering the last.fm API limit.
