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. Co-authored-by: rmcrackan <rmcrackan@gmail.com>
