Support for local FLAC files for the linux client

[zic_stardust]

This feature has been available in Android, iOS, Windows, and OSX clients for years.

Technically, the app can play FLAC, but .flac files are ignored.

This only occurs in the Linux client.

Please fix this.

Huge thanks to the Spotify team for bringing lossless FLAC audio support to the official Spotify client for Linux! I'm glad to see their support for Linux is not forgotten! High-fidelity streaming is a game changer!

I'm currently using Fedora 43 KDE

Frustrating that Spotify exclude 1 platform while the rest get this feature... I don't main linux, but i'm planning to switch in the near future. And the lack of .flac means I have to re-encode all my existing files so that I can continue to use them on Spotify.

I get Linux doesn't hold a huge market share but it's still unfair to exclude it from this simple feature.
