Show library tracks in the Recently played playlist (#6161)

# What does this implement/fix?

The built-in "Recently played tracks" playlist stayed empty for anyone
starting playback from the Music Assistant UI. A track played from your
own library is recorded against the library rather than a streaming
service, and the playlist dropped every entry recorded that way, so it
never showed anything. Scrobbling to services like ListenBrainz kept
working throughout, which made it look like only the playlist was
affected.

- Library tracks now show up in "Recently played tracks" instead of
being silently skipped
- A track deleted from the library after it was played is left out
rather than breaking the playlist
