Release 0.11.0

[cenodude]

CrossWatch v0.11.0

This is a massive release. CW now uses a native SQLite database backend for core runtime data and introduces multi user support.
Managed user support (multi-users) is still in very early development, so read the wiki pages before using it.

This release introduces major architectural changes, so expect new bugs.

IMPORTANT:
Your config.json will be rewriten.
Existing sync data and manual overrides are not migrated.
Older .json files are moved into /config/legacy.
Gettings your data back is easy, just sync.

✨ Highlights

• Native SQLite backend for CW runtime state. Your current events database will be extended.
• State, last sync data, statistics, watchlist hide rules, activity, currently watching data and sync reports are now database-backed.
• Multi-user (by delegation) with administrator and managed user accounts (readonly and full access).
  • Managed users can be linked to user profiles, so they only see and use the provider instances/resources assigned to them.
  • User profiles can group provider instances, sync pairs, watcher routes and webhook routes under the same person.
  • Read-only managed users get scoped access to Main, Watchlist, Playback and their own profile page.
  • Full-access managed users can work with their assigned profile/resources without seeing unrelated users' data.
• Maintenance now has database diagnostics, table counts and integrity checks.
• Editor now works against the database-backed state and has improved table controls.
• Rewatches option: sync repeat plays as separate watch events instead of a single "watched" flag for compatible providers.
• Import: bring tracker files straight into CW tracker, no connections needed (for example for Trakt)
• New tracker: PunchPlay, covering watchlist, ratings, history, progress and playback progress, plus scrobbling.
• New tracker: Scrob, covering watchlist, ratings, history, progress and playback progress, plus scrobbling.
• Better Anime ID mapping: episode level mapping for SIMKL, resolution out to the other providers and your own overrides.
• Beter Authentication support with 2-Factor Auth, OIDC, Plex-SSO (for all users)

🔧 Fixes & Improvements

• Improved: Core sync state no longer depends on state.json as the active runtime store.
