Description

On the official Spotify app, when on an artist's page, there is a "Liked Songs" section that shows the amount of songs you've liked by this artist.

Clicking into the "Liked Songs" section shows a playlist of these songs.

It would be cool to have this feature/selection filter added to psst as well.

Research direction
Start by exploring the psst codebase to understand the existing artist page and how data is fetched from the Spotify API. Look at files like `src/artist.rs` and `src/playlist.rs` for patterns. Check the comments in this issue for any prior discussion or pointers. Investigate the Spotify API endpoint for retrieving a user's liked songs by artist (e.g., `GET /me/tracks?contains` or similar). Consider implementing a new UI component to display the liked songs count and a playlist view.
