Spotify will soon update their authentication flow to block all HTTP redirect URIs, including http://localhost. They will still allow loopback IP addresses such as http://127.0.0.1 and http://[::1]. This commit just changes all mentions of localhost to 127.0.0.1. I don't think the implicit grant change affects spotify-qt.
