* fix(transcoding): preserve source metadata when transcoding downloads

Default transcoding commands used `-map 0🅰️0` with no metadata mapping, so
transcoded files lost all source tags (title, artist, album, etc.). Downloads
in the original format were unaffected because the file is copied byte-for-byte.

Add `-map_metadata 0 -map_metadata 0:s:0` to the default commands. Both flags
are required: `-map_metadata 0` copies format-level tags (MP3/FLAC sources)
and `-map_metadata 0:s:0` copies stream-level tags (OPUS/OGG sources), which
store tags at different levels.

The flags are added in three coordinated places, since for users on the default
command the args are built programmatically (buildDynamicArgs) rather than from
the stored command string:
- consts.go default commands, for new installations
- buildDynamicArgs, the active path for default-command users
- a migration updating only rows that still hold the exact old default, so
  customized commands are left untouched

AAC is included for consistency but remains a no-op: its `-f adts` container
cannot hold metadata, and the MP4 alternative breaks pipe streaming.

Fixes #5623

* fix(transcoding): target audio stream for metadata and propagate ctx

Address review feedback on the metadata-preservation change:

- Use `-map_metadata 0:s:a:0` instead of `0:s:0` to copy tags from the first
  audio stream specifically. When a source has embedded cover art exposed as a
  video stream at index 0 (common in music files), `0:s:0` pulls the image
  stream's metadata and the audio tags are lost. Verified empirically with
  ffmpeg 7.1.3: a source with video at stream 0 and a tagged audio stream loses
  its title under `0:s:0` but keeps it under `0:s:a:0`; audio-only OPUS/MP3/FLAC
  sources are unaffected by the change.

- Propagate the migration context via `tx.ExecContext(ctx, ...)` instead of
  discarding it, so the migration honors cancellation/timeouts.
