Make scrobbler work with Libre.fm, etc

[kingosticks]

From original issue mopidy/mopidy#401:

The scrobbler frontend currently only works with Last.fm. The underlying library, pylast, also supports Libre.fm and maybe other API-compliant services. We should generalize our frontend so that it can be used with other services than Last.fm.

For reference, version v1.0.0 has the updated libre.fm endpoint and is available on PyPi. It'll also be available in Ubuntu 15.04 (April 2015) but this doesn't help older Ubuntu installations. Maybe an updated python-pylast could be hosted on apt.mopidy.com, or mopidy-scrobbler could be removed from apt.mopidy.com and made purely available through pip? I don't know what makes more sense.

EDIT: I tell a lie, apt.mopidy.com already hosts python-pylast so maybe we could just get that package updated.

Any update on this?

I haven't heard any request for Libre.fm support for very many years, so I don't know if there is any actual demand for this.

Since we upgraded Mopidy to Python 3 this winter, we're once again back on the latest pylast version, so that blocker is at least gone now.

I would very much like mopidy to support libre.fm
It's not necessarily a priority, since as the apis are interchangeable it can be fixed client-side by overriding the host files... but it's just nice to have programs interface with libre.fm on their own.
