[Feature] Add series collection metadata to epub

[patrickli]

I got a new Kobo and used KCC to convert CBZ to KEPUB and it works great. However I am loading multiple manga series to it with each containing 10+ volumes, it becomes difficult to find the book you want.

I discovered NickelSeries which can parse sideloaded epubs and populate the series tab.

Then I realised the epub generated by KCC does not have series/collection information. Can you consider adding it?

All my CBZs have ComicInfo.xml added which is pulled from ComicVine. So we can only add this if Series and Volume fields exist.

The required metadata can be found from the EPUB specification https://www.w3.org/TR/epub-33/#example-expressing-a-decimal-separated-value-for-position. This is what NickelSeries uses to parse the series information.

Thank you.

Is it not this?

No. This edits the metadata in CBZs, but it has nothing to do with the converted epub files.

It needs to be implemented in this function https://github.com/ciromattia/kcc/blob/master/kindlecomicconverter/comic2ebook.py#L291
