feat(explore): let the album page be asked for the whole tracklist

An album the user holds part of showed only the tracks on disk, with
nothing to say the rest existed. The page could already draw the full
release with the missing rows dimmed -- it just could not be asked: the
automatic rule fires on `completeness.known`, which depends on the files
declaring a per-disc total, or failing that on the catalog's own
`total_tracks`.

Neither reaches most albums. #16 fixed the first input for anything
tagged from now on, and the second is worse than it looks: the published
artifact is from 2026-08-10 and the column landed on 08-16, so
`completenessAnswer()`'s catalog fallback answers 0 for every user until
the index job republishes. Measured, and noted on #88, which is the
publish that carries it.

So the control is explicit. A "Show the whole album" switch flips the
synthetic "Your Library" entry between the local files and the release,
which is the same rendering, reached deliberately rather than inferred.

Three things about it are load-bearing:

- `showFullTracklist` is a tri-state, `null` meaning "follow the
  automatic rule". The rule is right when it fires, and the switch has
  to agree with the page it is sitting on rather than starting out
  contradicting it -- a plain boolean would need its default recomputed
  every time the completeness answer moved underneath it. The user
  outranks the rule in both directions.
- `fullReleaseCluster()` falls back to the highest-scoring cluster.
  `findLibraryCluster` is a guess over the `inLibrary` flags and returns
  nothing at all when none are set, which is exactly the untagged
  library this exists for -- without the fallback the control would be
  absent precisely where it is needed. The sublabel names the release
  either way rather than leaving the user to wonder whose tracklist they
  are reading.
- It appears only where it can change what is on screen: against the
  library entry, with a release to switch to, and only when the two
  tracklists differ. A complete album's release has the same rows as its
  files, so the switch would redraw the same list and read as broken --
  the same test the version dropdown one section up already answers.

The accessible name is asserted rather than assumed, through the
browser's own computation. `wa-switch` happens to get it right, and for
a third reason again: its `<input role="switch">` sits inside a native
`<label>` that also holds the `<slot>`, so the name is computed across
the flattened tree from light-DOM text. This app has shipped the
opposite twice.

Closes #7

+The general point, which is why this is written down rather than just
