Player picks Opus when the browser can decode it and a sidecar exists (else lossless), injecting the sidecar before stream init; seek reuses the same format. Adds the Backfill-Opus bulk API endpoint + CMS action.
Background-job transcode (ffmpeg/libopus) after source store; pure C# Ogg
walker builds the 0.5s-bucketed granule→byte seek index + captures the
OpusHead/OpusTags setup header into a per-track sidecar in a new track-opus
vault. Best-effort, additive, regenerated on replace-audio.
