(JR-QoL) Allow users to set default Music library sorting option. - Jelly Robot - 2025-12-07

Quality of Life Update -
Add a field/option for the Music Library that allows users to be able to set which media display selection is loaded on default.

Right now, the default is Albums instead of Artists, but it makes more sense to me to display this information from macro to micro (Artists > Albums > Songs) since that is easier for people with large music collections to find what they want to listen to.

New to Jellyfin but it appears that this is not an available customization option. Every single time I load the music library, I have to click to artists. Maybe another user would want to auto-load into playlists. By allowing an option to select which will auto-load, Jellyfin reduces unnecessary client clicks and improves user experience.
