John O'Keefe 4a6fb033cb docs(media-items): Work Order 3 batch 3b — management endpoints (8)
New frontmatter'd docs:
- download (ServeFile — raw bytes, family-lens enforced; corrects the old
  download doc's claim that no download route is registered: ServeFile IS
  routed, DownloadBook is the dead code)
- set_audio_speed (speed range 0.25-4.0, NaN/Inf rejected)
- rescan (abridged example over the full 70+-column row; write-after-success
  guarantee noted)
- purge-archived (destructive, admin), unarchive (204), merge (SHA-256
  precondition, per-user collisions keep active copy)
- facets (two modes: facet+values, field autocomplete counts)
- filter_count (family lens)

Registry: RawMessage pins for map/abridged responses; Schema{} for non-JSON
body routes (download = raw bytes; unarchive = 204). Audit now:
missing docs down to ~55 (from 112), 0 orphans.

Purge Archived Media Items

Admin only. Permanently deletes ALL archived media items and their cover files. This is destructive — archived rows hold no reading data merge path (use Merge Archived Media Item per item first if reading history should survive).

Example response

{
  "purged": 3
}
