"""Shared application state — the seam that lets route modules reach core
singletons without importing ``server``.

``server.py`` is the host: it owns the FastAPI ``app``, constructs the DB
singletons, and runs the lifecycle. As routes move out into ``routers/`` (R3),
those modules need ``meta_db`` and friends — but they must not ``import
server``, or the import graph goes circular the moment ``server`` imports them
back.

So ``server`` **injects** its singletons here once, at the point it builds them::

    # server.py
    meta_db = MetadataDB(CONFIG_DIR)
    appstate.configure(meta_db=meta_db, ...)

and a router reads them back as **module attributes, at call time**::

    # routers/artists.py
    import appstate

    @router.get("/api/artist/{name}/page")
    def artist_page(name):
        return appstate.meta_db.artist_page(name)

This is the Python analogue of the injected `configureX({...})` seams the
frontend refactor uses (stems' ``configureStreaming``, studio's
``configureAudioGraph``, the editor's ``src/host.js``), and of the plugin
``setup(app, context)`` contract in Principle III: dependencies flow one way,
``server -> routers -> appstate``, and nothing imports back up.

Two properties this shape buys, both load-bearing:

* **``import appstate`` performs no IO and constructs nothing.** ``server``
  still owns construction, so the ~49 test fixtures that do
  ``sys.modules.pop("server")`` + re-import (to rebuild ``meta_db`` under a
  patched ``CONFIG_DIR``) keep working untouched — a singleton *owned* here
  would survive that pop and go stale.
* **Reads are late-bound.** Routers must use ``appstate.meta_db``, never
  ``from appstate import meta_db`` — a ``from`` import freezes the binding at
  its current value, so a later ``configure()`` (or a
  ``monkeypatch.setattr(appstate, "meta_db", fake)``) would not reach the
  router. This is the same read-only-binding trap as ES ``import``.

Defaults are ``None`` on purpose: they are inert but *type-honest*, so a router
that runs before ``configure()`` fails loudly on ``NoneType`` instead of
quietly operating on a stand-in.

Slots are added here only when a router actually needs one — this is a seam,
not a grab-bag for everything in ``server.py``.
