feat(bookshelf): replace broken datalist tag filter with custom autocomplete

The HTML <datalist> approach for tag autocomplete was unreliable across
browsers — showed empty suggestions or no dropdown at all.

Replace with a custom Alpine.js dropdown:
- New tag-dropdown.ts shared module: searchTagSuggestions() queries
  /api/media-items/search?tags=...&library_id=... and returns results
- Bookshelf: absolute-positioned dropdown below tags_filter input, shows
  tag name + book count per suggestion
- Keyboard navigation: ArrowUp/Down to highlight, Enter to select,
  Escape to close
- Click suggestion to populate the filter input
