Don't show the artist name in the tool-tip if it's the same as the sort name

      Normally, when you hover over an artist, their sort name will be displayed in the tool-tip. When the artist has been credited with a different name, it will be displayed as "artist name - sort name". If their sort name matches the artist name, the same text will simply be displayed twice. I propose that we should only display it once if the artist name and the sort name is a 100% match. Here is an example with the artist credited with another name and a sort name match: https://beta.musicbrainz.org/release/a8efe89d-8788-498d-af76-d5d643d3c4f4 (Track 19, also see the attached screenshot). In this case the tool-tip would be just "Tak". Thanks a lot!
