feat(career): extract the whole setlist before the gig starts

A feedpak is a zip, and the first play of one pays for its extraction into
sloppak_cache. Inside a set that cost landed BETWEEN songs: the player finished
a number and then sat there waiting for the next one to unpack, mid-gig.

A setlist is a known list up front, so unpack it all while the poster is still on
screen. New POST /gigs/prepare walks the set through resolve_source_dir; the
poster's Play button shows "Preparing set…" while it runs.

Best-effort by design, at every level:
  - a corrupt pak in the set does not sink the prepare (it is reported in
    `failed`; the play itself surfaces the error exactly as it does outside a
    gig — slow beats blocked)
  - a host without the library resolvers degrades to a no-op rather than 500
  - a failed request just falls through to the old lazy extraction

Ordering matters and is pinned: the set is unpacked BEFORE the stage is borrowed
(venue/viz overwritten) and before the queue starts, so a proposal cancelled
while unpacking leaves nothing half-applied to unwind.

Tests unpack REAL zips rather than mocking the extractor: every song of the set
lands on disk before the first note, a re-prepare does not duplicate the unpack,
one bad pak still leaves the good one prepared, and no-library / empty-setlist
degrade cleanly. 18/18.

NB the other half of the gig report — the per-song results popup interrupting
the set (and worse, claimAutoExit'ing so the queue would not advance until it was
dismissed) — is fixed in the note_detect plugin repo, which is not part of this
checkout.
