Make beets not penalize for [silence] tracks

MusicBrainz marks some tracks as "[silence]" when they come between real songs on an album. Currently, the beets autotagger penalizes albums if they're missing these silent tracks. But that's not too helpful—sometimes those tracks are missing intentionally. Your task is to modify the autotagger to avoid adding a penalty for missing tracks when the tracks in question are silent.

If you choose this task, please comment on the linked GitHub issue to introduce yourself and we'll get started.
