Bug Description

This belongs to the improved AutoDJ functionality in lp:mixxx

One thing we should really consider is to drop the hot Icons (icons with function) in AutoDJ tab in favor of buttons.

Why?
* Use unambiguous "Call to action" buttons as common in Mixxx
* Button text & explanatory tooltips are translatable
* Still possible to customize the buttons in skin definitions

See picture for comparison between proposed layout/current layout.

Patch removes icons and replaces them with buttons like in the picture above, updates the tooltips and adds a disambiguation for translators.
