Two-part fix for "[Unknown Album]" vs "Singles" mismatch that broke the
metadata editor (File not found):
- Download: always write an album tag, defaulting to "Singles" so it matches
the on-disk folder (album || 'Singles'). No-album tracks no longer show as
"[Unknown Album]" while living in a "Singles" folder. (Future downloads.)
- Editor resolve: Subsonic getSong returns a *virtual* tag-built path (e.g.
"[Unknown Album]/Title.mp3" with raw "|"), not the physical file ("Singles/
Artist - Title_YTPMV.mp3"). Add findExistingTrack as a final fallback, and
make its normalizer map the sanitized chars (/ \ : * ? " < > | and _) to a
space so a title tag matches the sanitized filename. (Fixes existing tracks.)

- Japanese tracks stored with original names in folder/filename/tags; romaji only in sort tags
- findExistingTrack: case-insensitive, searches all album folders under artist, strips release suffix
- --max-filesize 30M + 2x duration cap on all yt-dlp calls
- iTunes collectionArtistName captured as album_artist; fixes compilation album splitting
- album_artist tag uses mainArtist (not rawArtist) so all tracks in one album are consistent
- No-duration cascade: steps 5-8 (title-only/no-filter) removed — fail cleanly like with-duration
- Autofill iTunes: fills title, artist, albumArtist, discNum (was album/genre/year/track/total only)
- Autofill MusicBrainz: fills albumArtist, discNum (was missing both)

Five separate root causes fixed:
1. buildTitleKeywords (ytdlp.js): For Japanese titles \w strips all
kana/kanji leaving no keywords. Now uses the first whitespace-
delimited segment as a literal regex keyword so --match-filter
title ~= requires the YTM video to contain the Japanese text.
2. Tokenizer wait (ytdlp.js): If kuromoji hasn't finished loading when
a Japanese download starts, romajiForStorage returns the original
Japanese text unchanged — producing Japanese folder/filenames and
skipping sort tags. Now waits up to 30 s for the tokenizer.
3. titleOnlyMatch guard (metadata.js): iTunes titleOnlyMatch (no artist
check) was used as a fallback for all searches. For Japanese
titles/artists this matched wrong US songs with identical titles
(common in anime OSTs). Now titleOnlyMatch is skipped when the
search title or artist contains Japanese characters.
4. squid.js rawArtist: rawArtist was not in squid's signature and
never forwarded to embedMetadata, so Qobuz-downloaded J-Pop tracks
stored the iTunes-resolved English name as artist instead of the
Japanese original. Fixed by accepting and forwarding rawArtist.
5. squid.js romaji paths: Folder and filename used raw artist/title
with no romaji conversion, creating Japanese-named paths
inconsistent with the yt-dlp path. Now uses romajiForStorage same
as ytdlp.js.

1. JP genre mapping table in metadata.js — when only JP iTunes has the song
(niche Japanese artists), map localized JP genre names (アニメ, ポップ, etc.)
to English equivalents so files never get Japanese characters in genre tag.
2. Spotify playlist import (alreadyEnriched path) — was skipping iTunes lookup
entirely, leaving genre empty. Now does a lightweight genre-only lookup.
3. Single track download with Spotify album — was skipping iTunes when album
already known from Spotify. Now also fetches genre from iTunes when missing.

JP store returns localized genres (e.g. イージーリスニング instead of Easy Listening).
Fetch JP and US in parallel, use JP match for title/album/artwork but always
take genre from US result so genre is always in English/Western characters.

Prevent false Japanese matches by never using JP title-only fallback.
Strategy: JP strict → US strict → US title-only so niche Western tracks
still resolve but same-English-title Japanese songs don't pollute results.
Also fix JS error in autofillItunes: ie-total → ie-totaltracks.

- spotify.js: stop overwriting trackName with iTunes English title —
yt-dlp must search with original Japanese title to find the right song
(was downloading English covers e.g. Ghost In A Flower instead of 幽霊花)
- metadata.js: add title-only fallback in lookupItunesTrackMeta so tracks
are found even when kuromoji gives wrong artist romanization (e.g.
Terui Jun Sei vs iTunes Yoshimasa Terui); also return itunesArtistName
- novasonic-server.js: use itunesArtistName from iTunes lookup as the
stored artist when available (single-track and playlist download paths)

- Space as fallback separator on save when no explicit separator present
(Artist1 Artist2 → Artist1;Artist2)
- & and / added to explicit separator set everywhere
- navidromeArtist (download path) also handles /

- Normalize •, ·, ;, , separators on save (both edit and download paths)
- Fix ndSong scope bug (was inaccessible outside try block in edit-metadata)
- Apply _normalizeArtists to artist/albumArtist before ffmpeg tags and file rename
- Storage format: Artist A;Artist B (no space, Navidrome/MusicBrainz style)
- Display format: Artist A; Artist B (space, via _fmtArtists in frontend)
- Show separator hint below label in metadata editor fields
- Remove hover effect on player bar song title

Naming convention (download + edit-metadata):
Before: {01 - }Title.ext
After: {01 - }Artist1, Artist2 - Title.ext
- ytdlp.js: builds fileBase with artist prefix; findExistingTrack checks
both new and old format so existing files aren't re-downloaded
- metadata.js: findExistingTrack accepts optional safeArtist param
- novasonic-server.js: file rename on title edit now includes artist
(falls back to Navidrome's stored artist if not provided in body)
Song list subtitle: hide album name when album === title (singles where
the album is named after the track appear to duplicate the title)
Player bar: removed .player-title:hover underline/colour effect

iTunes: split artist by [\s,;/] not just space so "VXLLAIN, iGRES"
yields first word "vxllain" (no trailing comma) and matches correctly.
MusicBrainz: extract first artist from the full credit string (split on
,;&•) and use `artistname` field — MB stores credits like "VXLLAIN feat.
iGRES & ENXK" which never matched the comma-joined full string.

Removes LRCLIB lookup, .lrc sidecar file writing, and lyrics/uslt
metadata embedding from all downloads.

navidromeArtist() now writes ; instead of / so Navidrome splits
correctly with the updated Tags.Artist.Split config.
Also handles & (e.g. "Artist A & Artist B" → "Artist A;Artist B").
Add fix-artist-separators.sh — one-time Debian script to update
existing library files from " / " to ";" in artist tags.
