Update specified track with new metadata. Often this is only used internally by the player when new metadata is provided within the current audio stream, but additional metadata could also be provided by the Controller using this method. It’s possible to specifify if all metadata should be replaced or if it should only modify the provided metadata attributes

Specific information:
- If playbackQueuePos is not specified occurencces of the same track identity in the playback queue will be updated
- If playbackQueuePos is specified, the metadata of the track at the specified position in the playback queue will be updated
- For more details about the itemAttributes structure see the Content Access Protocol
- If a streamingRefs url attribute is a service: URI, the player is responsible to use the getServiceInformation method to get the real the mapping to the real streaming url from the Content Access Protocol implementation of the content service.

- The updated track information is returned, this is mainly of interest when not specifying replace:true because then the data can be a mix of old and new values.
