perf(sync): share parsed EPUBs across conversions, make converters concurrency-safe

ConvertToCanonical/ConvertFromCanonical built a fresh CFIConverter
per call, and each annotation converts twice (pos0+pos1) — a book
with 200 highlights re-opened and re-parsed the EPUB 400+ times per
sync, and again per metadata pull. A bounded 8-entry cache keyed by
path now shares converters (the parsing work belongs on the server;
clients stay thin). CFIConverter gained a mutex around its lazily
built spine/doc caches since instances are now shared between
concurrent requests.

Adds CFIConverter.SectionPercentage: book-wide percentage for a CRE
xpointer from the spine char distribution (midpoint of its document)
— the server-side counterpart to dropping per-annotation
getPageFromXPointer lookups from the plugin.
