📄 Description

Spotify curated public playlists vary by account depending on listening habits. This adds a way to know if a specific playlist reported for an account is one of these. Many times, the names of the playlists are not obviously Spotify ones

This will be used for messages on console and emails
The string should Include all desired characters, including a preceding space and parentheses if desired

Emojis should work, but I didn't test them

Example: 
   For: 90s Pop (Spotify curated), SPOTIFY_SUFFIX = " (Spotify curated)"
   For: 90s Pop (custom),          SPOTIFY_SUFFIX = " (custom)"

In use at startup:

Playlist:			Feel Good Dinner (custom)
Album:				Sugar at the Gate

Note that I used to have two labels for this.

Custom indicated the playlist was custom
Unique was added after to indicate if the song was shared with the current user or not (is it unique?)

However, with the recent change, you cannot look at the contents of a Spotify playlist to check whether or not there is a similarity with the current account

Playlist:			Feel Good Dinner (custom)(unique)
Album:				Sugar at the Gate
