Matroska::Tag::title() falls back to \Segment\Info\Title when a file has
no TITLE simple tag. That title was only extracted inside read()'s
readProperties branch, because Info is also where the audio properties
come from, so opening a file with readAudioProperties = false left the
tag with an empty title:
FileRef(path, true ).tag()->title(); // "handbrake"
FileRef(path, false).tag()->title(); // ""
Reading tags without audio properties is the documented fast path for
scanning a library, so this silently emptied the title for exactly the
callers who opted into it, and it made tag content depend on an
audio-properties flag in a way no other format does.
Store the segment title on the file itself, read regardless of
readProperties, and use it from both read() and tag(). The Info element
is already resident by then, so no additional I/O is involved and
audioProperties() still returns null when properties were not requested.
