Added -RecheckMetadata refresh the metadata of all media files to pull any changes from the BBC.

It searches recursively for files matching the -ShortTitle and fetches the latest metadata from the episode page on the BBC's website. If there are discrepancies, it updates the media file’s title and comment. I would only use it with the -Archive option because it can be slow if you have a lot of files since it has to pull the web page of each file individually.

Use case: Sometimes the BBC doesn't set the real title or description of a show until after it has already been published to Sounds.

If you're also using genRSS to build a podcast feed, you'll want to specify CheckMediaDirectoryHash=contents in the podcast profile so that genRSS detects the changes and updates the feed with the new metadata.
