Review request for Amarok.
Description
-------
If an UMS-collection is non-writeable (think freshly created ext4 on an USB-stick) a \
copy/move to collection will silently fail. It can only be seen in the debug logs on \
the console.
The reason is that the UMS-collection is not actually checking if its writeable. Its \
just assuming to be always writeable.
My change consists of two parts:
1. I check if the UMS-collection is actually writeable (mount point and if set the \
"music folder"). 2. To give the user a hint what is going on I added a warning \
message, informing the user that this collection is read-only (otherwise he might be \
confused why certain operations (move/copy/organize) are missing.

Testing
-------
I have tested with an USB-Stick containing an ext4 filesystem. First i had the \
base-dir owned by root.root (non-writeable), next i made it writeable and verified \
that its correctly detected as such. Next i created a "Music" folder and configured \
it for this USB-Stick. I checked that it was detected as writeable. Next i made the \
"Music" folder non-writeable and checked that amarok also detected that.
Thanks,
