[Enhancement]: Improve cover image & metadata parsed from epub ebook files

[advplyr]

Type of Enhancement

None

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

Select the cover image in the epub file based on the cover meta tag in the opf file. Currently the first image found in the manifest is what is being used as the cover.

Support alternative namespaces when parsing metadata from the OPF file.
Example supported:

<dc:creator opf:role="aut" opf:file-as="Orwell, George">George Orwell</dc:creator>

Example not supported alt namespace:

<dc:creator xmlns:ns0="http://www.idpf.org/2007/opf" ns0:role="aut" ns0:file-as="Steinbeck, John">John Steinbeck</dc:creator>

The same can apply when parsing the ISBN using an alt namespace:

<dc:identifier xmlns:ns4="http://www.idpf.org/2007/opf" ns4:scheme="ISBN">9781440633904</dc:identifier>
