A license denial left no trace: BookStatus stayed NotLiberated, so every
liberate run asked again. Only the GUI's bad-book dialog could mark a title
Error, and license denials take their own path and never reach that dialog, so
a headless install had no way at all to stop the retries. A cron schedule then
re-requested the same refused licenses every run and printed the same warning
block for each one, which is both wasted API traffic and the log noise reported
in issue #1947.
Record the refusal instead, with a wait that doubles per consecutive failure:
one day for an eligibility denial (up to 30), six hours for a title Audible has
no audio for yet such as an unreleased preorder (up to 7 days), one hour when
the denial names GenericError, which the GUI already reads as an outage
(up to 12). Nothing is permanent - every kind is attempted again on its own.
Only failures attributable to Audible are recorded. A dropped connection, a
decrypt error or a full disk keeps being retried on the next run as before.
Naming a title, --force, and setting a download status all clear the record:
asking for a title explicitly overrides the wait.

Records every successful audiobook download in the library database (a new
DownloadHistory table) and, when the user opts in, stops downloading once the
rolling 24 hour window is full.
The history lives in the database rather than a file under LibationFiles
because in Docker only the database is on a volume; a file there is discarded
on every container restart.
The limit is checked immediately before each book downloads, never at queueing
time, so a full queue stays full and the user can raise or disable the limit
mid-run. When nothing in the queue can proceed the queue pauses and re-checks
every 15 seconds, recomputing settings, history and clock from scratch, so a
queue left running for days drip-feeds itself as downloads age out. The CLI
never waits: it skips covered titles and reports a count.

All processables are now created with an instance of Configuration, and they use that instance's settings.
Added Configuration.CreateEphemeralCopy() to clone Configuration without persistence.
- Remove instance queue. This is a database, after all, and is designed to be accessed and written to concurrently
- Reduce the number of calls to DbContexts.Create()
- Ensure that no LibationContext remains open across an await boundary. Multithread context access is the most likely culprit for past issues.
- Make all Update UserDefinedItem methods asynchronous.
- Add `LIBATION_FILES_DIR` environment variable to specify LibationFiles directory instead of appsettings.json
- OptionsBase supports overriding setting
- Added `EphemeralSettings` which are loaded from Settings.json once and can be modified with the `--override` command parameter
- Added `get-setting` command
- Prints (editable) settings and their values. Prints specified settings, or all settings if none specified
- `--listEnumValues` option will list all names for a speficied enum-type settings. If no setting names are specified, prints all enum values for all enum settings.
- Prints in a text-based table or bare with `-b` switch
- Added `get-license` command which requests a content license and prints it as a json to stdout
- Improved `liberate` command
- Added `-force` option to force liberation without validation.
- Added support to download with a license file supplied to stdin
- Improve startup performance when downloading explicit ASIN(s)
- Fix long-standing bug where cover art was not being downloading
- Add Book.IsSpatial property and add it to search index
- Read audio format of actual output files and store it in UserDefinedItem. Now works with MP3s.
- Store last downloaded audio file version
- Add IsSpatial, file version, and Audio Format to library exports and to template tags. Updated docs.
- Add last downloaded audio file version and format info to the Last Downloaded tab
- Migrated the DB
- Update AAXClean with some bug fixes
- Fixed error converting xHE-AAC audio files to mp3 when splitting by chapter (or trimming the audible branding from the beginning of the file)
- Improve mp3 ID# tags support. Chapter titles are now preserved.
- Add support for reading EC-3 and AC-4 audio format metadata
- Add more null safety
- Fix possible FilePathCache race condition
- Add MoveFilesToBooksDir progress reporting
- All metadata is now downloaded in parallel with other post-success tasks.
- Improve download resuming and file cleanup reliability
- The downloader creates temp files with a UUID filename and does not insert them into the FilePathCache. Created files only receive their final file names when they are moved into the Books folder. This is to prepare for a future plan re naming templates
- Add template tag support for multiple series
- Add series ID and contributor ID to template tags
- <first author> and <first narrator> are now name types with name formatter support
- Properly import contributor IDs into database
- Updated docs
