feat(library): move files to another audiobook record#719

When files actually belong to a different book the library already
tracks (two books' tracks imported onto one record, or a collection
being split into its real books), a "Move Files to Another Book" action
on the detail page opens a transfer dialog with per-file checkboxes and
a library search ranked by token overlap.
POST /library/{id}/files/transfer: DB ownership reassigns always; the
physical file moves into the destination folder best-effort (failures
leave it in place with a warning — Organize can relocate later).
Collisions with a row the target already owns at the same path are
detected BEFORE any disk move and skipped with a warning, and any
per-file DB failure becomes a warning rather than aborting the whole
transfer. A source left without audio gets its legacy single-file
columns reset; history entries land on both records.
Row reassignment uses a targeted IAudiobookFileRepository.ReassignAsync
(detached stub, only the reassigned columns marked modified) so bulk
transfers can't trip EF identity-map conflicts on overlapping
navigation graphs.
Warning/error toasts are now sticky by default (dismissed via the close
button) — transfer warnings carry information the user needs to read
and act on; info/success keep the 5s auto-dismiss.

What
Adds a "Move Files to Another Book" action to the audiobook detail page: move audio files from one library record to another existing record, for when files actually belong to a different book the library already tracks — two books' tracks imported onto one record, or a collection that needs splitting into its real books.
POST /library/{id}/files/transfer(newLibraryTransferFilesWorkflow): DB ownership reassigns always; the physical file moves into the destination folder best-effort — a failed disk move leaves the file in place with a warning (Organize can relocate it later) and never aborts the transfer.FilePath/FileSize) reset, gated on what actually reassigned; history entries land on both records ("Files Transferred" / "Files Received").IAudiobookFileRepository.ReassignAsync: targeted column update via a detached stub (onlyAudiobookId/Pathmarked modified, nothing tracked) — a full-entityUpdateon rows sharing navigation graphs trips EF's identity map on the second file of a bulk transfer. Implemented withoutExecuteUpdateso the InMemory test provider exercises the same code path production runs.Why
Live case: a dramatized adaptation's parts were sitting on the wrong record while the book's own entry sat wanted with zero files. Today the only remedies are delete-and-rescan or manual filesystem surgery; this makes the fix a two-click operation that keeps history and never loses a file.
