CUE splitter using ffmpeg (to mp3)

cue_to_mp3.py

# Changes over the original:
#
# + Support both Python 2 & 3.
# * fixed location of bitrate parameters.
# * Fixed track duration so it does't cuts tracks short, nor starts them early
#   (Margin of error for .flac source files should at most be around +/- 0.013 secs).
# + Added pre_gap support.

@maye9999, I just added a basic "replace invalid chars in filenames with _" (Untested), just in case I take too long to move this into a proper git repo.

@OscarL Thank you very much❤
