Cinnamon's Patch (Sound Applet)

** Description changed:

  The Spotify Album Icon in the Sound Applet should show the Album/Song
  cover of the Spotify song. Instead it shows the default CD icon.
  
  According to upstream, the Spotify link has changed. A fix for this (and
  in the cinnamon-screensaver) is available.
  
  An SRU for BOTH PACKAGES, cinnamon, and cinnamon-screensaver in Focal
  and Groovy is required. (4 projects, 2 packages, 2 versions)
  
- SRU Template/All will be added/improved here:
+ SRU Template:
+ [Impact] 
+ 
+  * When users are playing a Song via Spotify:
+       * Cinnamon Package: In the sound applet, the Spotify album cover should 
show, but instead the plain 'CD'/Disk icon shows.
+       * Cinnamon Screensaver Package: On the top left, the song information, 
including the album cover should show but the album cover doesn't appear.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+  * Cinnamon Package: Play a song via Spotify and open the Sound applet to see 
the CD/Disk icon rather than the album.
+  * Cinnamon Screensaver Package: Play a song via Spotify and lock the screen 
to see no album on the top left when you unlock when it asks for password input.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+  * Regressions through other Spotify updates, or any link updates (the
+ main cause of this bug) can cause possible regression.
+ 
+  * Python is always known for breaking compatibility with plugins and
+ such; while this is unlikely if it were to happen, it probably shouldn't
+ happen before the support for Focal/Groovy expires.
+ 
+  * Physically talking Regression Potential: Very low. This was applied
+ upstream in Linux Mint recently. I will make sure this is fixed when it
+ waits in -proposed before it moves officially.
+ 
+ [Other Info]
+  
+  * This package requires a patch for BOTH Focal and Groovy.
+  * Review the Focal patch first before we move onto the Groovy patch
+  * Both will be tested.
