v0.6.0

[vynulldev]

Vynull v0.6.0

This release focuses on matching rekordbox on the wire and documenting
the HTTP API.

• dbserver menu and metadata responses now match rekordbox 7.2.19 across
  the browse surface: the root menu, category drill-downs
  (genre/artist/album/label/remixer/original artist with ALL rows),
  track rows, playlists, search, the 24-key wheel, and harmonic matching.
  Verified response by response against the link-spec conformance suite;
  this corrects a range of wire-format differences from real rekordbox.
• OpenAPI spec for the full HTTP API, served at /api/openapi.yaml, with a
  self-hosted Swagger UI at /api/docs (available even when headless).
• Uniform CORS headers on every API response, plus a live Server-Sent
  Events stream at /api/events, so external frontends can build against
  the API.
• master.db import no longer requires a hand-built Python environment;
  the sqlcipher venv is provisioned automatically on first use.
• Web audio player: play library tracks in the browser.
• Analysis BPM range (--bpm-range, or Settings > Library Source) keeps
  fast genres from analyzing at half or a third of their true tempo.
• Overlay waveform style: bottom-anchored bars or a centre-mirrored full
  look, plus an optional full-height band.
• History playlists exported to a USB now use rekordbox's exact row
  format.

Hardware-verified on a CDJ-2000NXS2.

Thanks to this releases contributors:

• Evan Purkhiser (@evanpurkhiser) - the link-spec conformance suite
  Vynull's dbserver was validated against.
• kayrozen (@kayrozen) - the master.db importer's automatic sqlcipher
  venv and the web audio player.
• Unkown607 (@Unkown607) - reported, with a fix, that the History table
  (0x13) export row format did not match real rekordbox.
