John O'Keefe 6fc501b35a docs(stats): Claude-side pinning — all 4 stats endpoints + UNVERIFIED sweep to zero
Stats docs written handler/service-first (summary/this-week/book-stats
new; library-usage frontmatter'd — its body was already accurate).
Registry: 4 entries on services.UserSummaryStats/WeekSummaryStats/
LibraryUsageStats/BookStats. Family-lens note: library-usage 403s an
explicit library_id outside the visible set (431fec0 rule).

UNVERIFIED sweep (7 -> 0), each resolved against the handler:
- device-usage takes NO date params; popular-books takes only ?limit
  (the 'standard analytics date-range params' claim was wrong)
- link_book media_item_id: no validate tag but service-always-written
- push_stats book-ref field set documented (uuid/sha256/title/authors)
- filter_count: confirmed ParseMediaSearchParams machinery + 400 on bad
  filter + 403 visibility
- facets values element shape pinned: {value, display?, count}
- get_config: dynamic key set IS the contract (reworded, no marker)

make test 9/9.

# Get Media Item Facets
Two modes, both returning small JSON objects:
1. **Facet values** (primary): `?facet=<param>&library_id=<uuid>` — lists the
distinct values of a facet within one visible library.
2. **Autocomplete counts**: `?field=<key>&library_id=<uuid>` — returns
`{"facets": {...}}` value counts for dropdowns.
## Example response
```json example-response
{
"facet": "author",
"values": [
{
"value": "George Orwell"
}
]
}
```
`values` elements are `{value, display?, count}` rows (`FacetValue`):
`value` is the raw value that rides the filter param, `display` is the
prettified form when it differs (language codes → names; absent means the
client shows `value`), `count` is the number of matching items.
## Query parameters
| Param | Type | Notes |
| ----- | ---- | ----- |
| facet | string | facet param name; requires `library_id` |
| field | string | registry field key (autocomplete mode) |
| library_id | uuid | required for facet mode; must be visible to the requester |
| limit | number | caps facet values |
## Errors
| Status | Body | When |
| ------ | ---- | ---- |
| 400 | `{"error": "library_id is required"}` / `{"error": "unknown facet: ..."}` / `{"error": "facet does not list values: ..."}` / `{"error": "invalid library_id"}` | bad params |
| 403 | `{"error": "library not visible"}` | family lens |
| 500 | `{"error": "..."}` | unexpected server error |
