refactored the whole thing

This adds in rtorrent for
https://github.com/calibrain/shelfmark/issues/420
The one weird thing I noticed is that the download path needs to be the
same for both (that's not how I typically set it up)
But it definitely adds to rtorrent and gives progress.
**rTorrent client integration:**
* Added a new `RTorrentClient` class in
`shelfmark/release_sources/prowlarr/clients/rtorrent.py` that implements
the download client interface for rTorrent using XML-RPC, supporting
adding, removing, and querying torrent status.
* Registered the rTorrent client in the client registry in
`shelfmark/release_sources/prowlarr/clients/__init__.py`.
**Settings and configuration:**
* Extended the Prowlarr client settings UI and backend
(`shelfmark/release_sources/prowlarr/settings.py`) to add rTorrent as a
selectable client, provide rTorrent-specific configuration fields (URL,
username, password, label, download directory), and implement a
connection test action.

**Test environment and scripts:**
* Updated `docker-compose.test-clients.yml` to add an rTorrent service
for local testing, including configuration, ports, and documentation
updates.

suite, with logic for connecting, adding, and removing torrents via
XML-RPC.

## Headline features
### Prowlarr plugin - search trackers and download usenet/torrent books
- Search any usenet/torrent tracker via Prowlarr, returns books within
Universal search
- Configure download clients in the app settings (Qbittorrent, Deluge,
Transmission, NZBget, SABnzbd)
- Unified download and file handling within the app, same as AA.
### IRC plugin
- Search IRCHighway #ebooks channel for books and download right in the
app.
- No setup needed
- Credit to OpenBooks for the broad idea and inspiration for best
practices for ebook-specific search and download.
### Google Books Metadata Provider

translators/narrators) for better search results
- Language multi-select - Filter releases by multiple languages
Docker / Build / Testing
- pip cache mounts - Faster Docker builds via BuildKit cache
- npm cache mounts - Faster frontend builds
- APT cleanup - Smaller final image size
- Added make restart command for quick restarts without rebuild
- New pytest-based test framework with proper configuration
(pyproject.toml)
- Unit tests for all download clients (qBittorrent, Transmission,
Deluge, NZBGet, SABnzbd)
- Bencode parsing tests
- Cache tests
- Integration tests for Prowlarr handler
- E2E test framework
