docs(api): document OPDS pagination links and OpenSearch search

Browse Source 
Update the OPDS section of the API reference to reflect the now-working
catalog:

- Document the page/per_page parameters and that paging is driven by the
  rel=next/previous/first/last links plus OpenSearch paging metadata.
- Refresh the example feed XML to show the pagination links, opensearch
  namespace/elements, and standard Atom <title>/<author> elements.
- Document the search endpoint's two modes: OpenSearch description
  (application/opensearchdescription+xml, no q) and results feed (with q),
  with an example description document.

The feed is paginated via standard OPDS link relations. Clients (e.g. KOReader)
walk pages by following the `rel="next"` link until it is absent. OpenSearch
paging metadata (`totalResults`, `itemsPerPage`, `startIndex`) is also included.

**Response** (200 - OPDS 1.2 XML with search results) When called **without** a `q` parameter, returns an OpenSearch description
