A recording of a live event crashed partway through: when its short
Akamai token expired, the proxy's stale-alias check swapped the
recording's mapping to the most recently registered deferred stream,
of any content. Segment requests were then built against the wrong CDN
path, returned 403, and ffmpeg exited, splitting the recording into
several files.
Proxy:
- Never swap URN-backed livestreams; they refresh themselves from the
API. Only consider swap candidates with the same URN.
Recording lifecycle:
- Complete a recording once its stream has been gone from the API for
5 minutes (broadcasts can end before ValidTo).
- Fail a recording still waiting for its stream after ValidTo (or 12h
after ValidFrom) instead of retrying forever.
- Wait for a DVR window whose start= is still in the future instead of
starting ffmpeg against a 400/404.
- Keep the original start time across restarts; don't mark a recording
failed on shutdown cancellation.
Growing .ts recordings:
- ffmpeg writes MPEG-TS (-c copy -copyts) to stdout and the plugin
appends it to one file per recording, so restarts continue the same
file and timeline.
- The Recordings folder lists any recording with a file on disk, not
only completed ones.
- In-progress recordings are exposed as infinite streams reading through
a new endpoint that follows the growing file (same pattern as
Jellyfin's DVR), so they can be watched from the start like a
livestream buffer.

SRG sends times with an offset (e.g. 13:55+02:00). They are stored as
DateTime, which deserialisation converts to server-local time, and two
places then wrote that straight into text: the "[dd.MM HH:mm]" prefix
on upcoming livestream names and the timestamp in recording file names
(DateTime.Now). On a server running in UTC both were two hours behind
Swiss time, e.g. a qualifying starting at 13:55 was listed as 11:55.
A new "Display Time Zone" setting (IANA id, e.g. Europe/Zurich) now
decides the zone for both; empty keeps the server's zone, and an
unknown id falls back to it rather than breaking the listing.
Utilities/DisplayTime does the conversion.
Also fixes PremiereDate on upcoming livestreams, which was set to that
server-local value although Jellyfin expects UTC. It was only correct
on UTC servers; it is now converted, like the other channel items.
Verified on simulated UTC and Europe/Paris servers: the same instant
gives 11:55 / 13:55 / 07:55 for server zone / Europe/Zurich /
America/New_York, and PremiereDate is 11:55 UTC on both.

Remove 9 dead methods, 6 unused constants, and redundant
ReaderWriterLockSlim from MetadataCache. Consolidate repeated
patterns into HasChapters, IsPlayable, and ToLowerString helpers.
Extract shared API methods in SRFApiClient. Move variant manifest
rewriting from controller to StreamProxyService. Make Auto quality
distinct from HD. Update README architecture section.
