feat(media): the audiobook relayout, filed by the book Plex matched

The audiobook tree is the one library Jellyfin does not read at all and Plex
reads completely: 58,975 chapters matched into Artist/Album/Track, where the
album is the BOOK and the book's single artist row is the NARRATOR. That is the
authority the new planner files by, never the collection folder a pack made.

  Audiobooks/<Narrator>/<Book> (<year>)/<the file's own name>

Two laws are the opposite of the music tool's, both forced by the rows: files
are never renumbered (72% of the books carry chapters with no usable index, and
playback order comes from the embedded track tag either way, so an invented
number can only lie), and the shelf is the narrator, not the author (every book
has exactly one artist row; the author survives in 10% of album titles and in no
column Plex stores, so one rule beats a shelf half authors and half narrators).

media-census.py gains the audiobooks export: the chapters Plex matched under a
root, host paths straight through, nothing outside the root and nothing Plex
deleted. 22 tests in tests/media_audiobooks.bats pin the export's join and the
plan's output.

album row Plex built from the files' own tags, `narrator` that book's

not an author parsed out of a title, names the shelf. `track` is empty
wherever Plex has no chapter number, which is most of this library.
`probe` is the slow step (every container is opened for its header, ~10 min for
4,800 files on a spindle array at 6 workers) so it is `nice`d: a census beside a
live service must not starve it. `enumerate` is a stat pass, so re-censusing
