Description
### Your idea
Option to add 'Clear Metadata' to a Macro chain. Every file processed by this Macro would have Metadata removed.
### Problem to be solved
Better results when bulk processing files in specific cases. Currently I can use "EditMetaData:" in my Macro and it will display the Metadata screen each process and I can click 'Clear' and 'Ok' but this is not efficient or bulk processing. We would like this to be automatic.
### Prior art
I have used this tool before to bulk remove metadata from mp3s https://crates.io/crates/id3-image
### Additional context
Thanks

Research direction
Start by tracing the existing "EditMetaData:" Macro command and the Metadata screen's "Clear" action. Determine how a Macro processes each file and make the requested option remove metadata without opening the screen; done when every file in the Macro chain is processed this way.
