Ray Slakinski f88ae657f3 An API client for ipx, and its event stream (#1)
Everything native needs this first, and it is worth having whatever happens
to the rest: a CarPlay browse tree is built from exactly these calls.

API covers what a client reads and writes -- feeds, entries with the
server's own paging, filtering, sorting and search, read and pinned,
position, read-all, download, delete, fetch -- and APIModels is what ipx
sends, with the server's field names kept so a type here can be checked
against web.rs without translating first. It sends nothing of its own to
authenticate: ipx decides who is asking by cookie and CookieBridge keeps
HTTPCookieStorage in step, which is the same property that lets a plain
<audio src> work.

Events reads /api/events with URLSession's byte stream, so there is no new
dependency. An event this build has never heard of decodes as .other rather
than throwing, because a new one on the server must not stop the stream. It
reconnects with a backoff: a deploy closes the stream cleanly and should be
picked straight back up, a daemon that is down should not be hammered.

Library is gone, folded into API. Two clients writing positions was one too
many, and the page's forwarded beacon no longer carries a path: it asks the
host to save, and the host uses its own clock, which is the only one not
stale when the web view has been frozen in the background.

The tests run against the browser suite's fixture daemon rather than canned
JSON, because the shapes being decoded are the server's and a fixture would
only prove it matches itself. Thirteen pass, including a live scan reported
over SSE and the playback round trip, which still works after the move.
