Describe the issue

Hello,
I noticed that for Ebooks on the web browser there's no option to add a book to a playlist, only a Collection.
However on the Android app, there's no option to add a book to a collection, only a playlist.

This obviously makes it awkward to segregate books into piles if the user uses both platforms.

Thank you.

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Click on a book
  2. Click Options (3 dots).

Audiobookshelf version

v2.3.0 (Web browser) & v0.9.65-beta (Android)

How are you running audiobookshelf?

Debian/PPA

Support for collections in the mobile app has been requested here https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf-app/issues/207

I don't think ebooks should be included in playlists because this is for audio content only. Once collections are supported in the mobile app I think this will meet your needs.
