Blacklisted folders are still indexed in Songs, Albums, and Artists #315

Description

@mainkyahikarun

After adding folders to the blacklist, tracks from those folders still appear in the Songs, Albums, and Artists tabs. I expected only media from whitelisted folders to be indexed, but files from blacklisted folders are still included in the library.

To Reproduce

  1. Open ChocoLa.
  2. Add one or more folders to the blacklist (or whitelist only specific folders).
  3. Refresh or rescan the music library.
  4. Open the Songs, Albums, or Artists tab.
  5. Observe that media from blacklisted folders is still displayed.

Expected behavior

Only music from whitelisted folders should be indexed and displayed. Files in blacklisted folders should not appear in the Songs, Albums, or Artists tabs.

Screenshots

The first screenshot below shows that the Songs tab only contains tracks from my whitelisted folder.

The second screenshot shows my whitelist and blacklist configuration.

The final screenshots show that the Albums and Artists tabs still contain media from blacklisted folders, even though those folders are excluded.

Additional context

Thank you for the amazing app! I really like the design and overall experience. This is the only issue I've noticed while using the whitelist/blacklist feature.
