john-okeefe a3fe47ac21 Update and consolidate implementation documentation
Clean up documentation by removing obsolete implementation notes and
updating the Calibre OPF implementation guide.

Changes:
- Update CALIBRE_OPF_IMPLEMENTATION.md with namespace URL approach
- Remove IMPLEMENTATION_TAGS_FILTER.md (superseded by unified search)
- Remove UNIFIED_SEARCH_IMPLEMENTATION.md (implementation complete)

The Calibre OPF documentation now reflects the corrected approach using
full Dublin Core namespace URLs (http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/)
instead of namespace prefixes, which were found to not work with Go's
XML decoder.

john-okeefe 902e878341 docs: enhance implementation plan with copy-paste ready code
Update CALIBRE_OPF_IMPLEMENTATION.md to be implementation-ready with detailed, copy-paste code for all functions.

Major enhancements:
- Add 4 detailed implementation steps with emoji markers (📝 STEP 1-4)
- Include complete, ready-to-copy code for all functions:
  * CalibreOPFMetadata struct (STEP 1)
  * parseCalibreMetadataOPF() function ~130 lines (STEP 2)
  * extractCalibreSidecar() function ~25 lines (STEP 3)
  * extractMetadata() modification showing exact lines to change (STEP 4)
- Add comprehensive unit test file (~200 lines) with test cases
- Add optional integration test (~100 lines)
- Add required imports section (encoding/xml)
- Add verification & testing checklist (Phase 4)
- Add troubleshooting guide for common issues
- Add success criteria checklist

Plan now provides:
- Exact line numbers and locations for all changes
- Complete functions ready to copy/paste
- Clear before/after code for modifications
- Test data and expected outputs
- Build verification commands
- Manual testing procedures

Implementation plan is now detailed enough for direct implementation by copy-pasting code sections.

Total plan: 1,113 lines (up from 427 lines)
New code templates: ~450 lines of production + test code
Time estimate: 2-2.5 hours for complete implementation

john-okeefe f7001dac4b docs: add Calibre metadata.opf implementation plan
Add comprehensive implementation plan for Calibre metadata.opf sidecar file support in the media scanner.

Key features:
- Sidecar-first approach: Calibre metadata.opf takes precedence over embedded metadata
- Complete database schema mapping (no schema changes required - all fields exist)
- Dublin Core and Calibre-specific field support
- Simplified implementation: modify existing extractMetadata() instead of wrapper pattern
- Works for all library types and file types
- Comprehensive testing strategy

Implementation details:
- ~150 lines of new code (2 new functions + 1 modification)
- No call site changes required
- Graceful degradation on malformed XML
- Performance target: <5% scan time increase

This plan reflects simplified approach based on user feedback to directly modify extractMetadata() rather than creating wrapper functions.

john-okeefe 22fd28c7db docs: add comprehensive Calibre integration documentation
This commit adds complete documentation for the planned Calibre
metadata.opf sidecar file support feature.

## New Documentation

### Implementation Planning
- CALIBRE_OPF_IMPLEMENTATION.md: Detailed implementation plan with
  requirements, architecture, database mapping, and step-by-step
  implementation guide for adding Calibre metadata.opf support

### Technical Documentation
- docs/development/calibre-opf-implementation.md: Technical implementation
  details including:
  - Scanner pipeline architecture with sidecar-first approach
  - Data structures (CalibreOPFMetadata, MediaMetadata)
  - Function signatures and logic for parseCalibreMetadataOPF()
  - Database schema mapping (no changes required)
  - Testing strategy (unit and integration tests)
  - Error handling and performance considerations
  - Code examples and benchmarking approach

### User Documentation
- docs/user/calibre-integration.md: Comprehensive user guide covering:
  - What is Calibre and how Bookhoard integrates with it
  - Automatic metadata import from metadata.opf sidecar files
  - Supported metadata fields (Dublin Core + Calibre-specific)
  - Setup instructions for Calibre libraries
  - Workflow examples (fresh library, mixed library, updating metadata)
  - Troubleshooting common issues
  - Best practices for Calibre + Bookhoard workflow
  - FAQ and resources

## Updated Documentation

- README.md: Added Calibre integration feature to media management section
- docs/user/user-guide.md: Added link to Calibre integration guide
- docs/developer/development.md: Added link to Calibre implementation guide

## Feature Summary

The Calibre integration feature will allow Bookhoard to automatically
import curated metadata from Calibre's metadata.opf sidecar files,
including titles, authors, series, tags, descriptions, publishers,
identifiers (ISBN/ASIN), and contributors. Uses sidecar-first approach:
metadata.opf → embedded metadata → folder structure → filename.

All database fields already exist; no schema changes required.
