fix(library): tell clients when a file goes missing or comes back — #2704
The wire field shipped in 366692a1 was inert. MarkTracksMissing and
ClearTracksMissing are plain UPDATEs, and /api/library/sync is a
change-log feed: a row that never produces a change row is never
re-sent. Clients would have kept their stale copy until an unrelated
edit touched the track or the cursor fell out of the retention window
and forced a full resync -- so the flag existed and nothing ever told
anyone to read it.

Found by checking the consumer set rather than the code: the field was
threaded end to end and every test passed, because none of them asked
the question "how does this reach a client?".

Logged BEFORE the mutation, which is the opposite of the scanner's
log-after-success pattern, and deliberately so. The failure modes are
not symmetric. Log-then-fail-to-mark makes clients re-read a track that
has not changed: one wasted fetch. Mark-then-fail-to-log leaves the mark
with no change row -- and because both statements are idempotent
(missing_since IS NULL / IS NOT NULL guards), the next scan will not
retry the pair, so the client never learns. Permanently. A spurious
re-read is much the cheaper mistake.

Restoring logs too. A file coming back that nobody is told about stays
greyed out on every device until something unrelated touches it, which
would be a worse bug than the one being fixed.

Op is upsert, not delete: the track still exists and keeps its history.
Delete would tell clients to drop the row, which is precisely the design
#2704 rejected when it chose to ship state instead of filtering the feed.

Adds sync.LogChanges alongside LogChange, backed by an unnest batch
insert. Every existing caller mutates one entity, so per-row was right
for them; reconcile can mark a quarter of a library in one sweep, where
a loop would be thousands of round-trips inside an already-slow scan.
