When kuromoji marks a katakana token as reading '*' (unknown word — common
for band names like ヨルシカ), the code fell back to the surface_form which
is still katakana. _hiraToRomaji can't handle katakana so it passed through
unchanged, causing sort tags to show ヨルシカ instead of Yorushika.
Fix: if the surface_form contains katakana and reading is *, convert it
mechanically via _kataToHira + _hiraToRomaji — katakana-to-romaji is always
unambiguous and needs no dictionary.
Also add a Japanese-char guard in the frontend when applying romaji index
values, so stale cache entries can never overwrite correct values with Japanese.

- Downloads now store original Japanese in TITLE/ARTIST/ALBUM tags
so Apple Music, iTunes, YTM etc. all see the authentic original text
- Sort tags (TITLESORT/ARTISTSORT/ALBUMSORT) written with romaji for
apps that use them for sorting/display
- iTunes-resolved English artist name used for ARTISTSORT and folder names
when available (more accurate than kuromoji for known artists)
- rawArtist parameter added to downloadTrack so YTM search query uses
the original Japanese channel name (fixes wrong song downloads)
- spotify.js: artistName preserved as original; itunesArtistName stored
separately so the Spotify importer shows Japanese titles
- romaji index now includes titleRomaji/artistRomaji/albumRomaji fields
- Frontend: showRomaji setting (Settings > Bibliothek) — when on, player
bar, now-playing, queue, and song lists all show romaji via index lookup
- refreshDisplayMode() updates all live UI when the toggle is saved

- Add romajiConvert() to api.js
- Add third fallback in _createNdPlaylist: convert Japanese title to romaji and
search Navidrome with it (for songs already downloaded with romaji tags)
