Describe the feature/enhancement

This is likely related to https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf/issues/1354
and would also ostensibly solve this issue: https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf/issues/1679

At the moment, I'm a new user and have just imported my collection which is nearly entirely already read. This feature would allow users to quickly set all files as read, embed metadata, quick match (which I do realise you can do elsewhere), or add to a collection.

Selecting one by one is fine if you have, maybe even up to 50 audiobooks, but once you reach hundreds, it's a bit of a task.

This is an absolutely fantastic app, and look forward to using it for a long while.

You can also hold down shift when you are batch selecting and it will select all items in-between.

Ahhh good to know! That's also an easy fix.
