yonlu 54b074eae7 feat: artist aliases in FTS5 index + BM25 blended scoring
Migration 14: add aliases TEXT column to explore_index, rebuild FTS5
with 3 columns (title, artist_name, aliases), recreate sync triggers.
Clears index build timestamps to force alias population on next build.

Artist image provider fetches inc=url-rels+aliases (single call, no
extra cost). GetAliases() extracts alias names from cached MB rels.
indexOneArtist stores aliases as space-separated text after image
resolution populates the cache.

Search query now uses BM25 blended scoring:
  ORDER BY bm25(fts, 3.0, 1.0, 0.5) - (ln(popularity+1) * 0.5)

Column weights: title=3.0, artist_name=1.0, aliases=0.5
- Title matches score 3x higher than artist name matches
- Alias matches are helpful but don't dominate
- Popularity is a log-scaled boost, not an override
- Exact title match on niche entity beats weak match on mega-popular

Enables: 'rhcp' → Red Hot Chili Peppers, 'gnr' → Guns N' Roses,
'sabbath' → Black Sabbath (once index build runs with aliases).
