feat(subsonic): Add avgRating from subsonic spec (#4900)
* feat(subsonic): add averageRating to API responses

Add averageRating attribute to Subsonic API responses for artists,
albums, and songs. The average is calculated across all user ratings.

* perf(db): add index for average rating queries

Add composite index on (item_id, item_type, rating) to optimize
the correlated subquery used for calculating average ratings.

* test: add tests for averageRating feature

Add tests for:
- Album.AverageRating calculation in persistence layer
- MediaFile.AverageRating calculation in persistence layer
- AverageRating mapping in subsonic response helpers

* test: improve averageRating rounding test with 3 users

Add third test user to fixtures and update rounding test to use
3 ratings (5 + 4 + 4) / 3 = 4.33 for proper decimal rounding coverage.

* perf: store avg_rating on entity tables instead of using subquery

- Add avg_rating column to album, media_file, and artist tables
- Update SetRating() to recalculate and store average when ratings change
- Read avg_rating directly from entity table in withAnnotation()
- Remove old annotation index migration (no longer needed)

This trades write-time computation for read-time performance by
pre-computing the average rating instead of using a correlated
subquery on every read.

* feat: add Subsonic.EnableAverageRating config option (default true)

Allow administrators to disable exposing averageRating in Subsonic API
responses if they don't want to expose other users' rating data.

The avg_rating column is still updated internally when users rate items,
but the value is only included in API responses when this option is enabled.

* address PR comments

- Use structs:"avg_rating" with db:"avg_rating" tag instead of SQL alias
- Remove avg_rating indexes (not needed)
- Populate avg_rating columns from existing ratings in migration

* Woops

* rename avg_rating column to average_rating
