Root cause of bad album/title tags: yt-dlp's --parse-metadata reads a
single-word FROM (matching field_to_template's ^[a-zA-Z_]+$) as a *field
name*, so literal one-word titles/albums like "Cochise" became "NA". Inject
literals via seed-then-replace into meta_<tag> instead (--parse-metadata to
create the field, --replace-in-metadata with literal args to set it), which
is immune to template parsing and also creates tags the source lacks.
- yt_download: literal-safe meta_artist/title/album; hit album no longer
clobbered by the Unknown-Album default; artist tag now created when missing.
- lidarr_search: connection/timeout errors surface via err() ("Lidarr
unreachable … falling back to YouTube") instead of silent dbg(), so the
YouTube fallback isn't mistaken for "no Lidarr match".
- Dockerfile: install deno (arch-aware) — the JS runtime yt-dlp needs for
YouTube; without it: "No supported JavaScript runtime" / HTTP 403.
- repair: treat NA/Unknown placeholders as bogus and overwrite title/artist
from source (was fill-missing-only); normalise literal "NA" album to
"Unknown Album"; rename bogus "NA [<id>]" filenames to the recovered title.
- README updated; .gitignore excludes server/log.txt.

--repair only reads metadata (never downloads), so pass
--extractor-args youtube:player_skip=js to yt-dlp. Keeps album/artist/year/title
but avoids the slow, throttle-prone nsig JS step (which crawls without a JS
runtime and trips YouTube rate-limiting during bulk runs). run_yt_dlp_get_metadata
gains an optional extra_args param; the download path is unchanged.

Repeatable -x/--exclude NAME skips any artist- or source-level folder whose name
matches (case-insensitive) when walking the library, so hand-curated folders like
/media/music/Unsorted or .../playlists are left untouched. Threaded through
_iter_source_files -> repair_library / retag_library_from_path.

Offline re-tag of artist/title from the artist folder + filename: strips
(Official Video)/(Lyrics)-style decorations and trailing [id], and treats an
'Artist - Title' filename as authoritative (recovering the real artist for
music videos filed under a channel name). Overwrites artist/title only; leaves
album/year. Honors --dry-run.
Refactors the source-folder walk into _iter_source_files, shared by --repair
and --retag-from-path.

--repair was clobbering good tags and erroring on real libraries:
- Validate the parsed id per source (YouTube 11-char, SoundCloud numeric) so
junk ids from bracketed descriptors ([Official Video]) are skipped, not queried.
- Skip files whose source returns no real music metadata (no album/year, e.g.
music videos) instead of overwriting clean tags with channel/decorated titles.
- Year from release info only (sane 1000-2100), never upload_date (which gave
wrong years for old songs and bogus values like 6577).
- album/year are authoritative; artist/title are fill-missing-only (no clobber).
Also: download_single now uses the first artist for the folder (matching the
search/playlist paths) so single-URL downloads stop creating multi-artist dirs.

Walks <root>/<artist>/<source>/ (known yt-dlp source folders only; skips Lidarr
album dirs), re-queries each file's source by the [id] in its filename, and fixes
tags (album/year/artist/title) via mutagen. Honors --dry-run for preview. CLI-only
(not the REST API). Fixes downloads that landed with missing album / wrong year.
