Description
With the latest changes (I guess commit Spotifyd#1182 f53deb9) the spotifyd does show up as "Librespot" only in Spotify.
This does not matter much if you run one instance. As soon as you run 15, this becomes a problem, because the discovery flow, always discovers another instance an no playback is possible.

To Reproduce

  1. Start spotifyd using '--device_name 'TestSpeaker' w/o providing a username and password
  2. Ensure the discovery is used
  3. Check your Spotify player - you will see a "LibreSpot" instead of "TestSpeaker"

Expected behavior
When a --device_name is given - it should be used in all scenarios, not only with username and password.
