Review Comment:
   The java.util imports are not in the same alphabetical order used elsewhere in this module (e.g., OpusParser), which can trigger checkstyle/import-order failures.

> The audio parsers (Mp3Parser, MP4Parser/TikaUserDataBox, OggAudioParser, FlacParser) emit embedded pictures with tk:embedded-resource-type=INLINE. For a client that wants "the representative image of this file" that is inconsistent with the other container parsers: ODF, OOXML, iWork, GeoGebra and RawTiffParser all mark that image THUMBNAIL, so a client can pick the first THUMBNAIL without knowing the format. For audio it currently needs a special case (INLINE image, and for ID3/FLAC preferably the one whose dc:description is "Cover (front)").
> INLINE also does not describe what cover art is: it is not a picture placed in the document's text flow, it is the picture that stands for the file.
> Proposal:
> - ID3v2 APIC and FLAC/Ogg PICTURE blocks: emit picture type 3 "Cover (front)" as THUMBNAIL. If a tag has no front cover, emit the first picture as THUMBNAIL. All other pictures stay INLINE (or become ATTACHMENT).
> - MP4 covr: the atom carries no picture type; emit the first cover as THUMBNAIL, further ones INLINE.
> - Keep dc:description with the picture type name as it is.
> This changes the resource type of one embedded document per audio file; clients filtering on INLINE to find cover art would need to accept THUMBNAIL as well. Worth a CHANGES note.
