A failed season-pack grab held the season off the pack lane forever:
pack_hard_failed was a bare EXISTS over failed grabs, so one bad
torrent disabled pack search for good, against §6.2's "it never gives
up entirely, it goes quiet".
The guard now rides the shared backoff curve (backoff_elapsed, 1h → 6h
→ 1d → 3d, capped 7d), counting failed pack grabs as attempts and
anchoring on the latest one's grabbed_at. Both the targeted and RSS
lanes agree. A manual season search waives the window outright — the
season deck is §6.2's escape hatch.
Closes#181.

The metadata lane runs daily, so a series added a moment ago showed no
seasons for up to 24 hours and a movie had no digital release date —
the field §6.2 gates targeted search on.
AppState now carries a MetadataCommand channel alongside the movie,
episode and season ones. Both create handlers send on it after the row
is committed, and a new daemon lane drains it. Its own task rather than
an arm of manual::run: a refresh against TMDB can take a while and must
not sit in front of an operator's manual search.
The add never waits on TMDB and never fails because of it. A refresh
that fails leaves metadata_refreshed_at NULL, which is what the daily
sweep already treats as due, so the title is retried rather than lost.
A command naming a title deleted in between finds no row and does
nothing. METADATA_INTERVAL is unchanged.
